DeSantis announces raise in teacher pay

[@jamelwright3234]

Teachers in Flagler START at 48k and 10-20 year veterans are making 50k because Flagler REFUSES to give them credit for their previous experience as they advertise on their website

They do the exact same thing in Orange County. They say they have reciprocity with other states, but they don’t.

Unless mortgages are $600-$800, teachers shouldn't be p paid under $60k.

Lol. Want that vote .

Why does no one never give the people working at the poverty level for school districts raises? Schools won't hire someone who ran or started a large business but will hire a degree holder who never did anything to teach the students how to do it.

Bravo Governor It's a great start. 😊

Lies, our education is the lowest. At least he is raising teacher pay, hopefully it's true. Nice to see him being a governor and taking on topics that actually matter, instead of fighting the LGBTQ community and fighting Disney. Still don't like this man but I agree Teachers definitely need pay increases. Just shut up ron and hand out those raises.

Disney bent the knee here in Florida as of the last CFTOD meeting on 6/5. They aren't out of the woods yet though with the State of Florida so while it takes a news back burner expect that Disney is going to be paying back billions to the State and local government around Orlando. Meanwhile, our education system in the state is now number one in the country. Partly due to the bill that is busting union control on teachers' pay and allowing teachers to form their own unions, go with other unions, or dissolve all ties to the unions that have become corrupt. The race is on between here and Tennesee as people flee places in like New York, and Chicago. My new neighbor moved down from Chicago his SUV has bullet holes in it.

Maybe you don't care what children are learning but we parents do care. It sounds like you only like the money, if you don't like teaching, get out.

@@vikingr1000You're off topic and forgot about Florida's gun crime rate.

@@deborahsheldon9951DeSantis is full of it. Most of this money goes to unconstitutional vouchers aka socialism for the rich.

[@vikingr1000]

@@noahbirdrevolution and you're off-topic and isn't it interesting how that went up with the influx of people fleeing the blue states.

Well considering that the trust fund babies of the government working illegally and frequently for cash in Florida, are regularly addicted to gambling lotto scratch offs..etc plus the allocation of billions of dollars from programs designated to provide much needed housing for the poor,we are in good company,because taxes not collected from the sale of overpriced real estate allocation of funds is the only way to ensure the continuous flow of migration from the north to the south ,the problem with this is as follows: migration is now being appended due to fear of rising inflation,and a repeat of the 2008 mortgage crisis ,besidesthe fact that Trump is now a convicted felon and good friend of DeSantis ,the estimates and the projections probably falls short.
