Are you a teacher in Boston? How many years teaching and how much education above a bachelor's degree does it take you to get to $100,000?
My experience is that the grids have $100,000 sitting out there like a Cadillac, but 99% of teachers get steak knives.

My anecdata- friend last year just crossed $100K in about her 15th year teaching in Boston suburbs. She didn't have to do any of the "add-ons" like sports team coaching, curriculum work, tutoring, etc. to get to that number.

I find the reply to be lacking in justification for why the price of labor for teaching is related to the median price for all labor.
In the Boston area it’s absolutely possible to exceed $100,000 salary. The pay scales are public, look it up yourself. I’m willing to believe many teachers are underpaid, and that those in Boston have legitimate gripes too, but we need to be clear about which context we’re discussing.
