Private school teachers will never earn public school wages.
There just isn't the funding, but on the upside, you have
selective admission. Many of the long-term "Catholic" or other
religious affiliated school teachers I've known teach there for
religious reasons, and sacrifice pay for that choice.

Charters could, theoretically be paid as well as public school
teachers, since they are usually partially funded by the
government, but you would have to unionize to get it.
