Re: Does anyone teach in Montana and love it?![]()
Posted by The conclusion? on 1/23/08
After all is said and done, it looks the the following are fairly conclusive
regarding teaching in Montana (does anyone think it's funny that the website
misspelled the state name?):
1) Montana teachers are the worst paid in the country.
2) The cost of living in Montana is very high.
3) You can't get decent housing (probably from a combination of 1 & 2).
4) If you have kids, they'll end up being Juvenile Delinquents (and what does
that say about your potential students?).
No wonder teachers are moving out of Montana in droves.
