North Carolina ends increased pay for teachers holding master degrees

Some interesting ideas and I might agree to an extent about certain master's degrees, but subject degrees I think can improve the knowledge and quality of teachers. That's obviously not always true and perhaps some performance evaluation is needed, yet I very much dislike the idea of capping teachers off at the bachelor level which this NC proposal would most assuredly do. If I were a teacher in NC I wouldn't bother with the time or the expense of a master degree now.
