The school year is in full swing in Georgia, and while students may already be counting down the days until next summer break, teachers know there is a long way to go.
There are more than 120,000 educators across the Peach State who have chosen to make education their priority.
But is Georgia a good place to work as a teacher?
According to a new report from WalletHub, Georgia ranks as one of the top states for teachers anywhere in the United States.
"Education remains one of the lowest-paying occupations requiring a bachelor's degree, and teacher salaries have not kept pace with inflation. Adjusted for inflation, on average, teachers are making 5% less than they did 10 years ago," according to the report. "Compensation and working conditions vary widely across the country, with some states offering far stronger support for educators than others."
