Raise your salary $564k with a MA+54!

 Raise your salary at least $564k!

In the table above, I simply totaled the rows of each lane. You can see a MA+54 will earn you an extra $564k compared to a BA. Invest those lane changes and you'll have millions more! Note: This doesn't include all the extra PERA pension money that you'll earn due to increasing your highest average salary!

Steps to move across the salary scale:

• Get an inexpensive master’s degree. Fort Hays State University has worked well for some. Just make sure the district will accept the master's degree.

• Don’t go into debt getting it. This defeats the purpose.

• Consider a principal’s license. This may open up better paying opportunities.

• After getting your master’s, NOT BEFORE, complete district PD classes ASAP. If you think you may move to another district, pay for university PD instead, as they will not accept the district's records.

• LANE CHANGES may be worth $10k to $30k year!

• If you invest your lane changes, it will turn into millions more! ($1.5M to be exact!)

• This number doesn't even include the extra money that you'll make during retirement, as a result of your highest annual salary increasing.
