Chicago Teachers Want a 30% Pay Increase Over Next 2 Years
|
In 2010 14,866 Illinois teachers made over $100,000. The highest paid teacher in Illinois teaches PE and made $203,154. 760 Illinois P.E. teachers made over $100,000 not including benefits.
But, they want more…
The Chicago Teachers Union is asking for raises amounting to 30 percent over the next two years, the opening salvo in heated contract negotiations with school officials who are implementing a longer school day across Chicago Public Schools next school year.
Documents obtained by the Tribune show that in the face of Mayor Rahm Emanuel's expansion of the school day, the union has led with an offer seeking a 24 percent raise in the 2012-13 school year and a 5 percent increase the following year, the net effect being 30 percent.

Those numbers likely include administrators and school district officials. He is trying to promote the outliers as the norm, when the average salary for an actual teacher is much, much lower.

How many total teachers are there in that area?
Why do you think its wrong for someone with a masters degree to make $100k+ after a few years/decades? Some fields hire for more than that with just a bachelors degree.
Republicans always say that if you want to make a lot of money you should work hard and get a good education. Teachers should be held up as a prime example of that, but instead you polirage against them because they tend to vote democrat and unionize.

A lot of schools in Chicago are literally (used correctly) trash and a lot of these teachers deserve every penny they ever ask for.

My mom is a teacher in a metro area (not Chicago  ) and she gets "Hazard Pay" because she teaches at a school in the bad part of town. 
Teachers here were just given a retroactive pay cut of almost 3%. Meanwhile the school board members make $36,000 for doing a part-time job. Uh wtf? A lot of the expense is the administration. In my opinion that is the area that should get cut first.

The main thing is in the case of those fields that pay more for someone with a masters, it's because a masters degree is felt to bring a higher return, be it profit, efficiency etc. The higher education has a direct and quantifiable return. Whereas in government there is no measurable or direct correlation between a masters degree and a public school teachers performance or the expected outcome of the teaching. None. It is simply yet another instance government spending other peoples money blindly.

As much as I think teachers deserve better pay than they typically receive, it kind of stings and seems imprudent of people in these times to demand better treatment and pay when a lot of us would kill just for any job, let alone a rewarding career like teaching.

One shouldn't be grateful for the opportunity to work for a living. I understand how hard it is for a lot of people but if you do a good job the people that pay you should be just as grateful to have you is all.
