Well, here in Ontario where teachers routinely make over 100k a year - check out today's sunshine list - the staff are not allowed to fail kids without written permission from the superintendent of the family of schools. I have worked in the information tech for the sector in the province overseeing digging us out of the dark ages.

Teachers in Ontario are heavily labour organized and you can get paid 150k to be an elementary school teacher. Bravo to them for pulling it off.
