Teacher Jobs in Delaware
Starting teachers in the state of Delaware earn $39,338 per year; slightly lower than the per capita personal income for the state, but salary increases due to additional certifications and tenure quickly close this gap. The state currently has shortages of certified teachers, making now a great time to enter the profession. There is need for primary, intermediate, and secondary teachers throughout the state, though by the numbers, the greatest need occurs in areas of greatest enrolment like Christina School District, and the Red Clay Consolidated School District.
