Wow, this is a new one for me; I don't think I've ever heard someone say teachers AREN'T underpaid. During the school year, they are with kids more than the kids own parents are unless you count being with the kids when they are sleep. Even during summer break the parents aren't with the kids much because a lot of parents work. How can someone who is with your kids that much only be worth $40,000 (what I've heard they make in Maryland)? That is under $4,500 a month if you go by 9 months. There are so many other jobs that could be cut, or not given the annual raise, that it is ridiculous. That money could be added to all these teachers' salaries.
