The US Labor Department states that employment for high school teachers will increase by nine percent from 2008 to 2018. This is average and should produce similarly average increases in teacher salaries . Many teachers can supplement their annual pay by helming extracurricular activities such as sports or drama. They can also earn more by teaching during the summer, when teachers typically get the time off.
