Depressing in a way
By sillylilly

I teach at a private school in TN and this will be my fourth year. I just got my first raise last year and am now making 21,000 a year. Plus I have to pay in 600 a month for taxes and insuance. THen also since we are a
private school the teachers get no money for anything in the classroom. So I have to buy all of my construction paper and art supplies, pretty much anything I do with the kids has to come out of my pocket. I would get my masters but you do not make anything more for having it just a pat on the back for a good job. Right now that is just more money out of my pocket. I work a second job

to be able to live. I love my job though the kids are worth every penny that I have to sacrifice some months though I wonder if I am going to eat. I would not trade it for the world though.
