Making on average around $30k.
I think starting pay is around $40k here for a BA.
Eta: average salaries range from mid 40s in exurban STL, to 50s in suburban and city STL to 60s in the wealthy districts.

Add in a retirement system where you will make more in take-home compensation than you did while working after 25 years, and the whole "underpaid" story disappears.

Yeah here they start out between $30 and $35k.
ETA: And really, even at $40k, it's still not much incentive to deal with kids who are doing things like dealing drugs, bringing fire arms to school, and etc. And because of pressure from "groups" in the city, they have gotten rid of our zero tolerance policy and the issues I listed above are no longer a guaranteed alternative school placement (they don't expel in my county either).
