Question: What if school based staff were at the top of the pay scale? That is, what if teachers were rewarded for staying in the classroom instead of rewarded for leaving the classroom?
Would that pay scale work?

Anonymous all,
The average teacher salaries in the three counties is listed below based on teachersalaryinfo.com

Charles - $59,108
Montgomery - $62,138
Fairfax - $59,108

I would love for teachers to be rewarded for staying the classroom, if they were qualified and excelled in the classroom. IN other words if they were a good fit.
