 I am a science teacher in CT. I would never in a million years complain about my salary or benefits, but they are certainly not why I teach. I love teaching.

 Let me make it simple for you scott... If I can make 110000+ in biotech and teaching pays 30,000, I can't justify teaching.  I think my salary is in line with what it should be.  My district the union also agreed to a pay freeze.  It will cost me 3,000 per year for the rest of my career.  We pay a fair percent of our benefits.  I don't know too many teachers asking for more more more.
