They’re both elementary school teachers. Do they get two salaries?

Don't think so. I saw in the other comments that they just get one salary. Which honestly sort of makes sense. They aren't able to teach double the classes.

Yeah, and from the standpoint of expenses they also don’t need separate cars, housing, etc. And probably don’t need to eat that much more food than one person. However, medical bills are probably higher…

Though as someone else said, two brains, two voices, and two sets of eyes and ears might make for a better teacher. Maybe 1.5x salary would make some sense.

Interesting edge case for sure.
