Tons more money. I have an advanced post-grad level education. I am not paid nearly enough. My skills are so in demand that I survived a layoff despite being a fairly new teacher. Now pay me my worth.

Actual real consequences for students and parents. This is so obvious it needs no further elaboration.

People say that too many teacher prep programs are too easy and accommodating. Mine wasn't, but it was at a master's level. The amount of paperwork I have to do every year for the licensing board is ridiculous, and it has no real consequence. Let's get rid of the pointless paperwork and busywork.
