Things are getting rather out of hand, I think...

Minneapolis Public Schools- one of the highest paying districts in the state- 3-5yrs experience, masters level jumps in the payscale at mid 30K. Outer districts its upper 20s. A master teacher, 20+ years experience, advanced degree (masters, phd) will top out at around 50K they can go higher by entering administration.

One thing that's always bothered me is that Kindergarten, 1st -3rd grade teachers generally get less "respect" and professional regard than teachers of secondary levels- this within the ed world. Success there makes or breaks. And dont get me started on Pre-k, daycare teachers. Good ones at that level are more valuable than gold. We dont invest nearly enough.
