Become a Teacher in Nevada

  At $43,394*, Nevada is ranked 26th in the nation for average teacher salary. However, when adjusted for cost of living, Nevada is one of the top paying states for teachers. Nevada acknowledges the importance of providing a quality education to the younger generations and as a consequence are providing comfortable salaries for teachers and administrators. By realizing the importance of supporting public education, Nevada is making the connection between a competent work force and a secure future.

  Future Nevada Teachers: Now is a great time to begin a career in education. Salaries are among the top in the nation when adjusted for cost of living. Teacher shortages are being experienced across the board, especially science, math, esl and special education. However, Nevada is anxious for results from the public educational system. Therefore, many school districts are placing a greater emphasis on highly qualified and educated new teachers. The connection between highly educated teachers and student achievement is clearly being drawn. For those who are motivated to equip themselves with the most current educational information such as modern teaching theories, data-driven decision making, technology integration, ethical leadership, resource management and much more are going to have a great advantage over the field. So, earn yourself an advanced degree, earn a larger salary, gain the respect of your peers and give credence to your teaching methodology.

  Current Nevada Teachers and Administrators: These are critical times for experienced teachers and administrators. Those who have been enjoying leadership roles are going to have to adapt to changing educational strategies based on non-traditional methodologies. Such changes are going to leave behind those who are unable or unwilling to adapt. On the other hand, for those who have been desperately wishing for the chance to be a part of positive change for Nevada, this is your time. Nevada is going to demand qualified, experienced teachers be in the classroom and highly educated and qualified administrators to solidify the infrastructure of their schools. Those who are going to benefit from these changes are going to be those who took action and earned their post-graduate degrees from the top, accredited universities. Earn your Master's degree, PhD or Administrative Credentials and be a catalyst for positive change in Nevada.

"I decided to go to graduate school and earn my Master of Arts in Education because I am inspired by new knowledge. I feel in order to perform my job to the best of my ability, I need to keep up with current practices and trends in the field of education." - Sara Marvez -- 6th grade science teacher

"Gaining my Masters degree has earned me respect from Administrators and colleagues. Also, my salary has benefitted greatly. The cost of graduate school was paid off in only a couple years." - Thomas Bjornson -- high school english teacher

"Postgraduate study was a personal goal of mine and completing my Masters degree has given me a great sense of personal satisfaction, it has also increased my efficiency in the classroom and my marketability in the job market."- Janet O'Reilly -- 8th grade social studies teacher

"I found my online courses efficient and friendly. I had a desire to go to graduate school, but I didn't want to go through the nonsense of another undergraduate degree, bumping shoulders with students a third my age who have very little understanding of real life or the benefits of real knowledge. A friend recommended online education and I haven't looked back since. At the age of 53, I love my job more than ever. I get so much satisfaction knowing that many of my students respect me for what I do as a teacher. I am able to face any sort of situation that arises in my classroom with complete confidence."
- Jonathan Lloyd -- high school chemistry teacher
