Dear NM Teachers,

I have been unable to shake a long-time love for New
Mexico, and am considering relocating from New York City to
NM (uncertain of specific area). I've taught high school
English in NYC for three years, am fully licensced, and
have a Master's in teaching. I've been trying to find an
online salary schedule for NM, to ascertain what my
probable salary would be, but haven't had any luck. Thus,
I'm appealling to the experts! Is there such a salary
schedule in NM? What might I expect to make w/ my
credentials? Any/all information regarding this subject, or
about the teaching experience/student population in NM will
be much appreciated. Thank you!

Each school district has their own schedule. Maybe you
should decide where you want to be and check with that
school district. Good luck

for an official salary schedule? NYC's teacher salary schedule is online -- everyone
can access it and determine their earning power. As far as I can tell, teachers in
NM don't have access to any such information (at least, online). Is thi...See More

I'm not sure who you could call because the salaries will vary by
district. The minimums I gave are statewide, but some districts
will be higher. Perhaps you should contact the districts
directly. ALso check out the New Mexico State Department of
Educaiton website.
