titianmom Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 Well homeschooling moms on the HS board, many of you have been homeschooling for quite a long time. I know it's a labor of love, and that the rewards are being with your kids and knowing that you've played an important part in your child(ren)'s education. And, we're blessed to be able to do this. But...sometimes I wonder. How much do you think you'd be worth out there in the real world, considering your org skills, talents, and broad range of knowledge after teaching every (stinkin') subject under the sun for up to 12 years straight, often several times with multiple students? This, of course, is tongue-in-cheek. Let's have some fun with this. :D I'd say I'm worth at least $200K, considering all the additional things I have to do on top of homeschooling, no? :) Don't worry, this isn't a pity-party thing. But I am tired, sometimes. Esp at curriculum-hunting time. (After all, I *did* volunteer for this job, so I can't very well whine about the work. ) Any thoughts?

Nicole M Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 200K seems about right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susan C. Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 OH, definitely more..... the principal, the guidance counselor, cook, janitor, nurse, person who picks the curriculum (above the principal in pay), and several teachers all in one. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jlovebaker Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 Minimum here is 20K for Catholic school but I feel that I'm teaching more like Sidwell Friends (I'm a lil cocky) so I'm going with a 75K number just for tuition. That does not include all the other $%^*( stuff I do! :001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
