Depends a LOT on where you teach. In my district (Pittsburgh Public Schools) w/ a Master's you will top out at about $71,000 after 10 years. Before everyone get's all up in arms about how I'm sooooo overpaid, consider most teachers in this district have a nervous breakdown and quit w/in 3 years!

I have heard that down south, teaching jobs are more plentiful, but the pay is considerably lower. Just what I remember hearing people say. If you do go into teaching, good luck!
