I teach in a title 1 district with obvious behavior issues . I want to be a VP. Problem is that I am currently high on the teacher salary schedule.

Because of budget issues both teachers and admin have taken a pay freeze into the foreseeable future. Admin said that they are freezing all admin steps at step 1 (step 5 is the max).

Even if I were to get an admin position at step 0 I would break even with what I’m currently making as a teacher (admin pay on step 0 is lower than what I get but they pay full retirement). Should I stay in the district? Look elsewhere? With all the budget cuts in all districts im worried about leaving a tenured position.
