If two separate people were teaching together they would not get the same paycheck. It's the same thing here, they do not share a mind. They probably even teach different subjects, take turns. Teaching involves lectures, they are not speaking in unison

If they were filling one position they would.

Edit: and what lectures? They’re fifth grade teachers. They applied for an open fifth grade position. One position. That’s it.

5th grade teachers teach multiple subjects. I've taught as a sub, plenty of times there were two teachers in the classroom both teaching the same class and splitting the work. We both got paid lol. It's the exact same thing here.

If they don't need two teachers, then they shouldn't hire two teachers, or they should place them in a classroom that does have two teachers.

They could departmentalize. Have Abby as ELA and social studies teacher and Brittany as Science and math. Except in the same room.
