This is a continuation of a series that begins with Money Lessons: Highest Teacher Salaries in the USA, Part 1 – Kindergarten.

Elementary school teachers instruct students in grades 1 through 6 or 8, or from around ages 6 to 11 or 13. They typically teach the same class of children in different subjects, though one teacher can also teach several classes in a specialized subject such as art, science or physical education. Their salaries can differ according to employer or location. All information is from the US Department of Labor, and does not include vocational or special education teachers.
