2020 has presented us with so many different challenges, one of which being schools transitioning into either full or part time remote learning.

Schools had to scramble to come up with remote learning plans earlier this year as the Coronavirus began to spread. Now, CMS just today (12/14/20) went fully remote  again until mid January as cases are peaking once again.

Teaching is already a difficult job, but with these new ways of teaching remotely being the norm in 2020, it became even more difficult.

As it turns out though, Charlotte is one of the better cities to live if you are a teacher doing remote learning. FinanceBuzz.com just ranked the best cities for teachers going remote in 2020. They calculated their results based on cost of living, median salary, internet speed (given the rise of remote learning), and school funding.

Here's are the Top 25:

  1. San Francisco
  2. Lincoln, Nebraska
  3. Seattle, Washington
  4. Kansas City, MO
  5. Virginia Beach, Virginia
  6. Jersey City, New Jersey

I think it is safe to say, we are all so thankful for teachers this year, and every year.
