A $60k annual pension is similar to having saved around $2mm after tax dollars for retirement. I don't believe teachers are contributing that amount.
I'm all about reasonable pay. But the big incentive is retirement years.
Plus I hate screwed facts on both sides. Class sizes are all over the place. Both my kids class sizes over last 6 years have always been low 20s in size.

Where do you get $60k? My wife is nearing maximum pension and from what I can see it is nowhere close to that (it is still a nice pension but not $60k).
At her elementary school all the classes are 30+. My daughter's grade 10 science class has 49 students.
