If a beginning teacher starts out with a salary of $36,875 (assuming only a teacher's certificate, which takes an additional year of schooling to obtain) and only has to work from early September to mid-June, along with significant off time for Christmas break, Easter break, etc., makes that kind of money, then that would be a starting salary of $53,263 based on a 12 month work year in a non-teaching job. This doesn't include any other benefits that may be included in their compensation. You cannot tell me that that teacher is underpaid. If I made that kind of money, I'd be quite well off at 24 years of age.
Of course if you've got a master's degree or higher, along with more experience, then your salary would be higher. For example, a teacher with a master's plus 90 credits or a PhD and 16 year's service would be making 92,000 per year based on a full year's work. Doesn't sound like any teacher in Washington State is underpaid
