Door County is not only one of Wisconsin's top tourism destinations, it also has 2 really good school districts to teach in. This county is one of Wisconsin's purple counties with about an equal mix of Democrats and Republican. Of course, all of it's representatives are Republicans, owing to the severe gerrymandering legislative districts by the Republican Dictatorship that rules Wisconsin.

Average teacher pay in Door County varies widely, from a low of $44,665 in the Washington school district to $66,618 in the Gibralter school district. 

The average teacher salary in the Southern Door district is just over $54,000, at $54,017 which is significantly less that than either then Gibralter or Sevastopol districts. Teachers in this district will never catch their counterparts in those districts because the average pay increased by only 8.4% since 2011, which was far below the rate of inflation and far behind those neighboring districts.

The Superintendent here did even worse than the teachers with an pay increase of only 4% since 2011. 

For these reasons, we rate the career employment potential in this district as a Dead End job.
