This site has starting salaries for New York City public school teachers.
http://schools.nyc.gov/TeachNYC/salary/default.htm
click on "the official salary schedule"
You can check the salary schedule of most public schools in the country on line by typing "starting salary of -name of city- public school teacher".
The salary information should be weighed against the cost of living for each location. For example, New York is an expensive city. Other places might not pay as much, but your living expenses might be lower. Your college or university will have a teachers placement office that will provide up-to-date information about jobs and salaries. If you have an advanced degree your starting salary will be higher.
The rewards of the teaching profession go beyond one's salary. Good luck
