Sort of agree, sort of not. I want smart, empathetic people who like to teach kids. I'm not that concerned about the well-educated part. (Obviously, some undergrad degree in their subject, but no need for higher ed for anyone pre-10th-grade.) We pay cops, firemen, nurses, even physician assistants less than $55k. I think you can draw from the same groups.

I haven't looked it up in about three years, but I think the $55k figure is fairly high for most schoold districts for all but the most senior teachers. Around here, they tend to start closer to the 30s
