FEEL FREE TO LEAVE A COMMENT!!!
How did this statement make you feel about the topic of teacher salaries?
I definitely resonate with the last slide about how people comment on the teaching salaries when I tell them I am in school to become a teacher. It's really discouraging to hear that so often and makes me second geuss wanting to become a teacher. -Ian
