re: #244 jaunte

I’m not sure why a teacher would stay in a job that started at $20k and topped out at $60k if it didn’t come with a pension.

Perhaps because they like their career choice? I agree the starting pay sucks. I say, give starting teachers no less than $35k, and you’ll start getting people in Wisconsin interested in teaching and able to afford their college loans for their degree. Pay for it by making teachers work like the rest of us till say 65 before they are eligible for their pension.
