Both sides is what's funny to me. One side banned books, the other side said "don't represent people who ban books. Banning books is bad." But yeah, both sides. OK.

The starting salaries are low, the reality is many suburban teachers have golden handcuffs and a lot of tenure, so they are more focused on negotiating the upper end of pay bands than focusing on starting salaries.
The unfortunate reality is many teachers get their start in less competitive crapola school districts like the Philly SD and then run for the hills of suburbia as soon as they have some experience.

Get your degrees, certs, be good at your job, put in a couple of decades to get the experience. In short, work hard, then you can...

It appears to show the highest salary on the currently selected page, but the average and median is calculated across all pages.

You can find many total collective bargaining agreement easily online and see the pay bands. Most teachers with decent tenure and those with advanced qualifications pull in close to six figs or over it.

Why does the govsalaries link show differently for highest salary?

> Just a small correction from your link, $122,004 as the highest salary - not $225,000. All the other numbers look good!
$122K is the highest salary on page 2. The superintendant is on page 1 at $225K.
There is a math teacher making $166K in just salary, or $269K with benefits.

Yet I'm sure they, and all that voted to put said board in place, would claim to be fiscal conservatives.

I mean, why would a school even need a PR person?

CRSD was paying their communications person somewhere in the $100-120k range the last time I looked. Add in benefits and I can believe it might make more sense to hire a firm - for a bit more you get a whole team instead of just a single person.

That makes a little more sense. I still think the starting wages are criminally low, but that does help some.

That's the starting salary for the lowest level teaching job there is.
You can find the total collective bargaining agreement easily online and see the pay bands. Most teachers at the high school level have a decent tenure built up and pull in close to $90k. The pay scale tops out at $111k for advanced degree holders with tenure.

Reply to comment by notherredditaccount9 in Has anyone recently transferred an ATV title, or otherwise know what the current title turnaround times are? by ho_merjpimpson
Not worried about the registration or plates, just the title. But that timeline matches up with what the notary said, and will essentially be a week late for what I need it to be.
Although I'm sure things ebb and flow, so who knows, I might still have hope for 5 weeks vs 6.

Oh absolutely. I guess I'm just conditioned to hear complaining whenever I see "girls" and "wrestling" in the title, hell even "girls" + "high school" in the title sets people off.

Central Bucks is garbage. Maybe the board shouldn’t be politically motivated to attack kids. I hope that district reconsiders the actions that it’s allowed their board members to take. Disgusting.
