Announcing new data in our TR3 Database: now you can find the maximum annual salary a teacher can earn in a given district. Teachers earn the biggest bucks in Montgomery County Public Schools, District of Columbia Public Schools, Newark School District, and New York City Public Schools, which is in line with what we'd expect based on the cost of living in these areas. To max out at over $100,000 in these districts, teachers have to have a master's degree plus at least 30 credits of additional coursework (most require 60 additional credits beyond a master's or a Ph.D.) and between 21 and 29 years of experience.
