Re: Teacher Payscale in Hawaii
Posted by HIteacher on 5/05/08
Hi. I just came back from an interview with the Hawaii DOE and
according to the brochure I received, if your husband has a
master's degree and more than 6 years of teaching experience,
it looks like he will be making around $46,000-$55,000. I'm
writing down a huge range because in the brochure I received
there's only a category for teacher's who have taught for up
to 3-6 years with a master's and then there's a category for
teachers with a Ph.D or Ed.D. The $46,000 is for teacher's who
have taught for 3-6 yrs and the $55,000 is for teachers who
have a ph.d or ed.d. I hope this information is helpful. And,
fyi, things work a little differently in Hawaii from the
mainland, as I found out recently. If you do not have a Hawaii
credential, you are automatically lower on the list of
teachers, regardless of your yrs of experience and education.
And,they suggest that you don't contact the schools
individually, because everything is done based on a computer
system of where you stand on their list. Despite their
different system, they are very helpful and you can actually
get through to a live person when you call them. Private
schools may be easier to find a position, especially if your
husband teaches upgrades. There are some really amazing
private schools on the island, and you can apply directly to
the school. A good website for private schools is

Best of luck. Aloha..
