I am a Union Teacher in LA. How come YOU tell me our avg. sal. is $75,000 but my contract says...?

I didn't because I sure as heck don't know how much you make, but based on your other question I know reading comprehension isn't your strong suit. If you can make $75,000 a year teaching you're in a pretty good area though, teachers in my state can't ever make more than $61,000 a year without some good bonuses for being nationally certified and other such stuff. I know teachers don't average $75,000 a year.
