Big Fat Pay Checks

http://ednews.org/articles/24054/1/Paying-Teachers-125000/Page1.html

It seems not all paychecks are created equally. Some teachers in charters schools are being paid upwardst to 125,000 per year. Which isn't that much when you consider that, on average, a school spends atleast 10,000 per year on students, and in wealthier districts upwards to 60,000.

However, the pay scale is much, much larger than the countries average of 50,000 per teacher, per year. So, it's atleast a step in the right direction as far as pay goes. Unfortunately alot of teachers in charter school are not unionized, wich leaves them without protection from the evils of school districts.

So the question posed is, job security? or a big fat paycheck.

i'll go with paycheck.

Charter Schools

http://ednews.org/articles/23623/1/Charter-Schools-Here-to-Stay/Page1.html

Charter schools are springing up throughout the nation. It seems that standardized test scores and grades are going up in certain areas with charter schools. I, personally, see nothing wrong with charter schools. If people are upset about the way the state runs things, why shouldn't they be able to act, somewhat, independently.

Scores up? citizens happy? go for it.
