The average salary of Texas public school teachers has stayed virtually unchanged over...

Kindergarten dual language teacher Yanelli Lopez works with her students at Vines Primary School in Aldine ISD Thursday, July 22, 2021. The average salary of Texas public school teachers has stayed virtually unchanged over the last decade when adjusted for inflation.

“When accounting for inflation as reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the average salary for Texas teachers remained essentially unchanged in that 10-year period,” the report states. “The average starting salary for new teachers in Texas, meanwhile, went backwards, decreasing by 4 percent when accounting for inflation.”

Tasha Wilson, a paraprofessional at Spring ISD for almost two years who serves as a liaison of sorts between parents and teachers, is in the support staff category. When she is not working, she has been attending the University of St. Thomas in pursuit of a master’s degree. “I went into this line of work because my passion and my love is special education,” Wilson said recently. “I would love, would love to teach. However, the frustration and everything is not even worth it now.”

The woman, 26-year old Lizelle Herrera who lives near the Texas-Mexico border, is being held in Starr County jail on a $500,000 bond. The murder charge is an extreme and unprecedented misuse of Texas law that is in direct conflict with the constitutional right to abortion established in Roe v. Wade in 1973. Texas does not have a law that makes self-inducing an abortion a crime (three states do—Oklahoma, South Carolina and Nevada). Two recent laws restricting abortion in
