Are you a teacher in Miami-Dade? How are you faring financially?
Miami-Dade voters will decide this November whether to retain a property tax that keeps teacher pay in line with national averages — between $60,000 and $70,000 annually.
Should the initiative fail, “teacher salaries would drop significantly,” Superintendent Jose Dotres told the Miami Herald in May.
Ahead of that vote, we want to hear from teachers in the Miami-Dade public school system, which includes charter schools, about how their household’s finances are faring amid Miami’s mounting affordability crisis.
If you’re a Miami-Dade teacher, how are you feeling financially? At your current salary, do you struggle to get by? What would a pay cut mean for your household? We’d love to hear your insights.
