An economist would say most likely. Bigger cities (that have more diversity) need better teachers, though. Of course, that doesn't take into a lot of factors. For instance, if a teacher-spouse worked in a bigger city but now works in a smaller town because of spouse.

I've had some assholes, and scholars as teachers. In my mind the scholars stand out over the assholes greatly.
Thanks to the awesome teachers that made a great impact on my life. |

Another crisis of kids in trouble in a school. What do we hear? Teachers putting their life's at risk to protect or save children.
http://www.people.com/people/article...702199,00.html To be a teacher is already to be a hero, but during Monday's monstrous tornado in the suburbs of Oklahoma City, Rhonda Crosswhite put her life directly on the line after first seeing that several of her students had taken refuge only moments before the twister devastated their school. "I was in a [bathroom] stall with some kids and it just started coming down, so I laid on top of them," the sixth-grade teacher at Plaza Towers Elementary in Moore, Okla., told Savannah Guthrie on Tuesday's Today show. "One of my little boys just kept saying, 'I love you, I love you, please don't die with me.' But we're okay. We made it out." All of the children who were with her are now safe, there was one minor injury – a cut to the head, said Crosswhite – and she herself emerged with only some scrapes on her feet, which she called "irrelevant, considering what could have happened." "I never thought I was going to die," she said. "The whole time I just kept screaming to them, 'Quit worrying, we're fine, we're fine.' And I'm very loud, so I just hoped they could hear me, because I could hear them screaming. One girl, she's in my homeroom, was sobbing, and I was like, 'We're going to be fine, we're going to be fine, I'm protecting you.' And then I said a few prayers. 'God please take care of my kids.' And we're fine." Recalling the tornado and its 200-m.p.h. winds, Crosswhite said, "I don't remember what it sounded like, honestly. It was like a freight train, but I don't remember much about it,'' she said about the sound of the tornado. "It felt like someone was beating me up from behind. The stuff was just coming down on my back. I thought I was fine, [but] I have cuts everywhere that I didn't even realize I had." After the interview, Damian Britton, one of Crosswhite's charges during the ordeal, had something to give her. A great big hug.

Teacher impaled protecting class
http://www.cnn.com/video/data/2.0/vi...v-leg.cnn.html Remarkable courage of Teachers: http://www.cnn.com/2013/05/21/us/okl...html?hpt=hp_t4 Right before the tornado hit, she hurried students into two bathrooms and a closet. There were about eights boys in the boys' bathroom, including Glasgow's son, and a dozen girls in the girls' bathroom. She and other adults were with three children in the closet. "Before I shut the doors, because both bathrooms had doors, I said, 'I'm going to shut these doors,' and I said, 'I love you.' The boys looked at me a little strange. (I) walked in the girls' (bathroom) and said, 'I love you' and they all said 'I love you' back. "I just told them to pray, and then that's what we did the whole time in the closet, just prayed," said Glasgow. The storm blasted through. Stuff flew everywhere. A cinder block fell on her neck. Courage of Teachers: http://www.cnn.com/2013/05/21/opinio...ers/index.html Heroes or just doing their jobs? Teacher save lives during tornado "We had to pull a car out of the front hall off a teacher and I don't know what her name is, but she had three little kids underneath her," a rescuer said. "Good job teach." Anne Marie Murphy, a mother of four, died trying to protect 6-year-old Dylan Hockley as Adam Lanza terrorized the halls of Sandy Hook Elementary School in December. When police found the two victims, Murphy was still holding Hockley in her arms. And five other educators did not run away from the threat but gave their lives trying to protect students, trying to protect children. How do you overpay for that? Obviously no parent or guardian drops their children off at school thinking tragedy is going to happen. But perhaps we should be grateful that if something terrible does happen, that there are these angels in the building who will do right by our kids. Who will give anything -- sometimes even their lives -- to protect them in our absence. One of the Plaza Towers teachers reportedly was lying on top of six students in a school bathroom to shelter them from the horrific storm. I'm sure that is not in the job description.
