This is a very misleading story, if you follow old gal's link in her post and enter coach, head coach or football coach you will not get any results. The supplement for coaching is not listed. Now lets educate some of you on how teachers are paid.
1. years of teaching experience.
2. level of education
3. National Board teacher
4. extra curricular activities
5. Dept head
6. Coaching supplement -Increases with number of years experience.
Those coaches who are listed at the top of the pay scale have 25 to 35 years teaching experience,have a master degree,they get a supplement for AD and Head Football coach. The bulk of their salary is for number one and 2. You can find teachers who are making 65-75K just for teaching! It is a shame the paper is just giving part of the story. Find out how much they are paid for coach only then write the story! That would not sale many papers.
Old Gal , provide a supplement scale for your district please so we can see what the coaches in your area are paid!
