Kansas Teaching Salaries

Kansas Teaching Salaries have not been properly reflecting the current mentality in Kansas public schools. Increasing teacher salaries for higher levels of education and teacher induction programs are just two of many efforts being pushed behind the scenes of Kansas education to aid Kansas' ailing educational system.

When considering in what field and what geographic area to pursue a career, it is wise to consider not only where the industry currently is, but also where it has come from and where it appears to be going.

Public education in Kansas is on the up-and-up. Kansas Teacher Salaries are not being risen indiscriminately. It is the age of accountability; therefore, for those who are ambitious, teacher salaries are commensurate with educational experience and degree level.

We encourage you to calculate the costs of the lifestyle you wish to lead, costs of living in Kansas, the excellent benefits associated with education and the salaries below before making a decision whether you will or will not be teaching in Kansas.

As you can see below, you can greatly increase your earning potential as an Kansas Teacher if you acquire an advanced degree such as a Master's degree or a Doctorate degree.

** Salaries are from the 2006-2007 Blue Valley School District and the Unified School District 214 in Ulysses, Kansas

When viewing these numbers, keep in consideration such benefits as full dental, long-term disability and quality health insurance. Secondly, these are salaries based on a 190-day or 10-month work year. We encourage you to explore what each school district has to offer you, take into consideration the area in which you wish to live and do the math to see if you will be satisfied. Good luck!
