Public school teachers make, on average, $13,540 more each year than private school teachers, and that does not even factor in the benefits that private school teachers do not usually get. This applies across the board, and is consistent regardless of race, gender, education, or time in the job.
Average salaries for full-time teachers in public and private elementary and secondary schools, by selected characteristics: 2007-08
But you insist that public sector workers are not overpaid.
Which sector is responsible for America's GDP, and economic growth? Private Sector.
Which sector is responsible for the drain on America's wealth? Public Sector.
Without the private sector, there is no fucking public sector. Live with it.
Teachers have a sweet gig for the most part quit trying to play it off like its some horrible job. Geeze.
Well I was in grade school for 13 years so I have some experience with teachers. And its definately no more difficult than any other job people go to college and get a degree to do. In fact I would say its probably better with all of the vacation days.
Are you saying that public teachers are overpaid or admitting that private schools underpay their teachers? Let's look at a few things.
Public teachers must be credentialed by their state and that pretty much means at least 5 years of college. Private school teachers do not have to be credentialled at all.
Public school teachers have to continue their education and renew credentials occasionally at the behest of their state....private school teachers do not.
Yes, public school teachers can get tenure after a few years....private school teachers cannot...private schools can hire and fire at will...they also pick and choose their clientele and many teachers will tell you that is WORTH the lesser pay.

So you want teachers that have professional credentials and degrees to be paid as much as those who may not even have bachelor degrees.Are you saying that public teachers are overpaid or admitting that private schools underpay their teachers? Let's look at a few things.

Private school salaries would be the standard for the market. So they couldnt be underpaid. Just show that others are over paid.
I welcome any evidence of that being true.

Look at whatever you want, and I will point out facts. Private school teachers who have the exact same level of continuing education, degrees, and experience make less than public sector teachers. Private sector schools also out preform public sectors schools across the board as far as graduation and test scores go. Private sector teachers work the same hours for less money, and do a better job. The only conceivable explanation for that is that, even if private sector teachers are underpaid, public sector teachers are overpaid.
By the way, some private sector schools do give tenure, and some even have unions. My guess is most of your assumptions about private sector schools are wrong.
