They might get that if they teach in Charlotte-Mecklenburg or some similar place. The rest of us don’t:

Your table of NC teacher pay.
First here are some data points from your table:
with NBPTS certification:
0-2 years: $34,080
10 years: $42,240
15 years: $45,000
20 years: $47,390
25 years: $51,300
Someone I looked at yesterday has 27 years and makes $62,800. She might have taken some learning programs that boosted her pay but she doesn’t get additional pay for coaching or some other above-and-beyond activity. She’s just a teacher. She’s in the Wake County system.
