Rewards of teaching

One of a teacher's greatest re­wards is to see his or her students succeed at their studies and develop into productive, responsible citi­zens. Nearly every teacher has this opportunity.

The salaries of U.S. teachers vary from district to dis­trict and from state to state. In the late 1980s, the national average was about $26,000a year for elementary-school teachers, about $27,000 a year for secondary-school teachers, and about $36,000 a year for teachers in colleges and universities. During the mid-1980s, the national average in Canada was, in Canadian dollars, about $27,000 a year for elementary-school teachers, about $41,000 a year for secondary-school teachers, and about $51,000 a year for university teachers.

In most U.S. school districts, teachers receive pay raises according to a salary schedule. The schedule grants salary increases for each additional year or other period of service and for additional professional train­ing. Teachers’ organizations generally seek to raise scheduled salaries when they work out a new master contract with a school board. Other U.S. school districts use a merit pay systemor a differentiated stalling sys­temto grant pay increases. The merit pay system bases raises mainly on how well teachers teach rather than on their experience and additional training. It requires a method of teacher evaluation. The differentiated staffing system divides the teaching positions in a school into various levels according to the amount of responsibility they involve. Teachers receive raises mainly by being promoted to a higher level.

Some school districts and many colleges and univer­sities grant teachers a sabbatical, or professional, leave after a certain number of years of service. Many sabbati­cals consist of a semester’s leave of absence with full pay. Teachers are expected to use a sabbatical to further their professional growth.
