3 years of teaching experience with an MA in addition to teaching experience
without the MA or starting teaching with an MA and now have 3 years of
experience?

Teacher salaries are getting better mainly because teacher shortages are
getting to a critical level and teachers are leaving the field for better pay
and less stress elsewhere. And they do get more than most museum people with
comparable experience and education. But compared to salaries in the corporate
world with the same amount of education and experience, they do lag behind.
Keep in mind while Delaware or Yonkers teachers might be making $60K+, there
are teachers in the mid-west that top out below $35,000.
