My husband was a tenured elementary school teacher making a decent salary with regular advances. His dream was to teach at the college level. So, I supported his decision. We moved half way across the country for a temporary college-level teaching position and a pay-cut. Eleven years later and now at the fourth school he is finally happy in what he does and making the salary he would like to have. So, don't expect satisfaction overnight. It's bound to be a tough road. But if it's what you really want, go for it.
