My girlfriend's sister is a Vice Principal at a large high school in a large school system in the USA. She works 10 months a year and makes $75,000.00 with full benefits, etc. Granted she has 2 Masters Degree's and her Under Grad. Degree, plus she is working on another Masters.
My mother has been a life long school teacher, mostly in high schools dealing with Special Ed. students. Last I checked she has was $50,000+ with full benefits, etc. and she only works 10 months out of year as well. She also has 2 Masters Degrees and has decades of work experience and training.
The two I listed are not your average teachers, most are making in the range of $30,000 a year with full benefits and most have 2 months off in the summer. However these days teachers get paid extra to teach summer school in the summer so it adds to their income. Plus teachers also get additional money for coaching sports teams, running clubs, etc. Also the benefits that teachers receive are simply amazing. Full Medical, Dental, Eye, etc. with the lowest copays or no copays. Sick leave is amazing and you get any holiday off and snow days off.
