@stinkykoala biggest complaints have zero to do with compensation, but that the local school administration is useless, support from DCPS is non existant, and she basically has to do everything on her own.
The city should find some better functioning principals and administrators before trying to run and pay everyone more.

Agreed. Admin has a lot to do with this either requiring too much mandatory BS not related to teaching (described above) or being absent.

Of course some schools have great principles whom the teachers love. In general though I think there's too much antagonism between teachers and principles. I know several DCPS teachers who quit b/c of being fed up with admin, not b/c of the kids or pay.
