I see two questions that you are having. First, the pay issue. I am a teacher too and looking to retire in about 5 years. Like all retirement plans, it does not pay you a full salary like when you were working. Mine does not cover health insurance. Sub pay is also lower than what even a beginning teacher makes. Some retired teachers sub to make ends meet and the school systems are counting on that. I have a friend that retired from the public school system after 30 years and teaches part time in a Catholic school.


The sub should not pay your friend privately. Your friend should go to the prinicipal with the situation.
