leilanidude - One issue is that teachers are basically allowed to do no disciplinary actions other than "send the child to the office".
What disciplinary actions do you think teachers should be undertaking unilaterally?

Some of the context missing is that to reach above $90K, teachers need both a PhD and 22 - 30 years of experience, and that ~$90k+ dollars currently is low-income for a family of four in Hawaii (yes, even on the Big Island) and starting wages for teachers are still below very-low income levels.
Perhaps we should go back to the good old days and require teachers be spinsters and not get married, so they're not burdened with raising a family on their minimal pay? Maybe we can at least include a stipend so they can afford to feed a (feral) cat or two?
