A new ADP Research Institute report showed how teacher pay compares to the pay of all employees.
Teacher pay as a share of the pay for all employees aged 20 to 25 has greatly fallen over the years.
AdvertisementThere's a shortage of teachers, and young adults could be shying away from the profession as teacher pay becomes less competitive.
And for teachers aged 25 to 30, that has increased from $49,427 in January 2018 to $59,780 in October 2023.
Education isn't the only field that may have trouble attracting young job seekers.
