 I may not know for sure what makes a good teacher, but I am pretty sure that arrogant and stupid are probably not qualities most students would appreciate in their teacher.
 
 In addition, I am pretty sure the average public school teacher in California gets over 40K.   I think taxpayers would be willing to pay quite a lot if they were sure it would get results.  As long as the Teachers Unions are in control, no matter how much money you throw at the school system, things are not going to get better.

 I must have been unclear.  $40k a year 
more than now.  Going back, I can see how one might get confused.
