[Vision2020] Joe, on teachers

[Phil Nisbet]

>From the review I did of the Idaho wage realities, it did not look like 
teachers in the Primary or the Secondary School catergory were underpad.

If you go into the wages, you find that we are actually grossly underpaying 
only certain types of teachers, even on the secondary school level.  
Frankly, early childhood educators seem to be drawing the same salary as day 
care providers.  People providing adult literacy education are drawing just 
about that same salary.

While I can see some disparity being allowed, its hard for me to believe 
that Kindergarten teachers deserve only $15,000 a year, but first grade 
teachers should be paid $36,000?

Then look at Secondary school salaries and try to make some sense out of 
them.

Thoughts?
