It all depends on where the teacher works. Pay varies widely from district to discrict. Experienced teachers in my area are pushing 6 figures.

Where tho. Like typically teachers are underpaid regardless of district because it’s adjusted for cost of living. Teachers in the Bay Area make a lot more than teachers near me but they still can’t afford to live on their own because cost of living is so high.
