This - I know teachers with 25 years experience making close to six figures, which seems fairly insane.

Why shouldn't a teacher with 25 years experience not make six figures, or close to it?

So they never performed well? Very few jobs have pay that directly correlates to current performance.

What school district? Teacher salary is public knowledge. There are very few states that pay teachers 6 digits.
