[QUOTE="KTMom91, post: 344685, member: 4040"] There's been a push by a local district (not mine) for people to go into teaching as a second career, stating some of the things that Terry mentioned, like attracting competent people, with experience...and being one of those people, I can honestly say that teaching full-time is not really in my best interest financially. I was in retail management for ten years, I have my forty quarters in for Social Security, and now I'm paying into CA Teacher's Retirement. However, the way things stand right now, I cannot collect both the amount of SS and the amount of teacher's retirement I would be entitled to...it's pretty much one or the other. I believe more people would consider teaching as a second career if that retirement loophole was closed, or if we were allowed to continue to contribute to SS. [/QUOTE]
