A little history on Black_Engineer. My Grandmother was a teacher/Principle for years...
2 Masters and she still struggled like a motherfuck to make ends meet. She is ballin now becuase she got herself a Ph.D and Teaches at Temple U.

When it was time for me to go to college and I had casually stated that I what to be a teacher, she convinced me not to do it. Financially it doesn't make sense. Teachers make 30,000 starting....and the incremental raises just don't add up......

If we want people to become teachers, pay em.

Vote people into office that keep education a priority. If you pay them on par with others of there education level, people will teach. I would. I still want too, but explain how I am going to turn down a career that a 25 I make around $70,000 to take a job makin $30,000? You can't.


Once you pay,you won't have too ask that question agian.



Carry On.
