Can Teachers Still Find Fully Paid Health Insurance along with a Great Salary?

Yes, if you are lucky enought to get a job in Pennsylvania's Neshaminy School District. According to www.webwire.com, "Teachers in the Neshaminy School District enjoy an average annual salary of $89,075. 44% of the 664 certified staff members make at least $95,923 for their work year of 188.5 7 hour days."

"The Neshaminy School District pays 100% of the cost of insurance premiums for family health insurance, vision, prescription, and dental for all of their certified employees. The District, funded mainly by tax-paying residents, continues to provide free health insurance for employees even in retirement - until the age of 65. To many, this sounds like an uncharacteristically high level of compensation in this current economy, but to the NFT negotiators this is unfair."
