What is the average teacher salary in each state?

I have composed a summary page for each state with lots of helpful information to help you make decisions.

Here is what each page has...

Salary Range; this shows the range from a beginning teacher to the most experienced.

Average Teacher Salary; this is the average for the state.

Average Beginning Teacher Salary; shows where a teacher would start in this state.

Median houshold income; I included this to let you know where you fit in with the how much other people make.

Median house price; gives you an idea of how much it would cost to buy a house in the state.

Since each state can have dramatic changes from city to city I have included on each page a link to a cost of living calculator that will show you specifically how far your money with go in a particular city.

I give each state a grade based on the numbers and the information I find. (I am still working on a grading system that is fair to all the states)

I then write a summary of each state about what you can expect as a teacher in that state.

I finish off each page with a list of websites of where I got the information for the page and other helpful links.
