I really don't care about your office situation, my wife is a teacher that cares about kids and takes pride in her job. Think about what they spend on a education to work for peanuts, their pay is ranked 48 out of 50.Time to bring in scab teachers. Fire the whole bunch and hire new education graduates.

The system chases the good teachers to neighboring states for more money and better benefits, which the state reneged on what was promised 30 years ago, so don’t spout off unless you know the factsI have a decent IQ but am fairly uneducated despite easily earning my degree (high school) in WV.
Higher pay may be needed to get more qualified teachers to come to WV but damn it hurts paying those that are there now (many who just suck) more money. Guess we’re in a chicken /egg situation.

My sister, brother in-law, nieces, etc. are teachers. They work 9 months out of the year and can work a summer job for additional pay, which the rest of us can't do. I've seen it many times.I really don't care about your office situation, my wife is a teacher that cares about kids and takes pride in her job.

Teachers will lose
I would like 10 times if I could.People don’t want to see quality educators leave the state for more lucrative opportunities, but don’t want to pay them what they’re worth and what they deserve. The complaining about the minor inconvenience of finding temporary childcare while the strike continues is ridiculous. Teachers are fighting for what they deserve.
The funding for the raises isn’t even going to come from from WV citizens’ pockets. They’d really be unhappy if they lived within certain school districts in PA where every time it’s determined more funding for teachers’ salaries is needed (i.e. raises), property taxes are raised without a vote from citizens. There are no voting on levies.
Our children will lose
They said on the radio the average is $47,000 per year for 9 months work.I was shocked to learn how little teachers in West Virginia are being paid. It’s barely a living wage if at all. Not sure how people expect talented teachers to work in WV for so little money.
That can’t be right ? They get 3 months off ?They said on the radio the average is $47,000 per year for 9 months work.
Is it about pay? The rise of the cost of their medical insurance? Both?I really don't care about your office situation, my wife is a teacher that cares about kids and takes pride in her job. Think about what they spend on a education to work for peanuts, their pay is ranked 48 out of 50.

Bruh, u realize they make more alone then the average income for a household in this state?I was shocked to learn how little teachers in West Virginia are being paid. It’s barely a living wage if at all. Not sure how people expect talented teachers to work in WV for so little money.

I have high cost Obamacare. The local radio gave the history of WV teacher pay and benfits this past week. PEIA was offered up decades ago in place of teacher pay raises. The teachers accepted the low cost insurance benefit in place of teacher pay. Now they want both. They said it, I didn'tWho do you work for ? Do you have peia?
