Remember when Mark Johnson talked about how the teacher starting salary in NC was really good?
During a question-and-answer session Thursday at the N.C. School Boards Association’s policy conference in Raleigh, Johnson said that the base state starting salary of $35,000 for North Carolina teachers was “good money” and “a lot of money” for people in their mid-20s.

“But that $35,000 mark for a starting salary if you’re in your early 20s, that is really good, especially in some of our rural districts.”
He was in office until less than five years ago.
Wonder what he would say about those salaries now.
