How much money did a teacher earn in the 1920's?

Answer 1

Salaries for public-school teachers varied widely, but most earned $800 to $1,000 per year For comparison sake... Manufacturing jobs generally paid well $1,100 to $1,200 per year -though they were also affected by frequent layoffs. Farming paid poorly, with the average farmworker receiving $500 to $600 annually, though he might also save money by growing his own food. Most office workers earned around $I,200 -unless they were female and therefore brought home only $800 to $900 per year.
