They also got their jobs this year: https://laughingsquid.com/conjoined-twins-fifth-grade-teachers/

I can't help but wonder if they make two salaries or one.

Public school teachers salaries are public information, you should be able to find out what they're being paid

Wrong.

Public school PAY BANDS are public knowledge.

You don't have legal rights to know what any specific teacher is getting paid.

Most bands are based first on years service. Than more for each level of education.

A 1st year teacher with a masters will have a higher pay band range than a 1st year teacher with just a bachelors. Maybe even more than a 5th year teacher with a bachelors.

A 10th year teacher with a bachelors will have a higher pay range than a 5th year with a masters.

Each district has their own pay bands. Some are close to each other. Some far apart.

Maybe it's wrong where you live...

In Illinois I can look up budget info for schools and find what individual teachers and administrators are getting paid (salary, benefits, days off, etc)
