Pretty sure you need a masters to be a teacher in MA

Really? For all grade levels?

Yes. All public schools and grade levels require a masters. You can teach at a private school without one, though.

Pretty sure those pay much less and lack the benefits of public school districts, though

Not exactly true. Waivers are available. Would be best to reach out to schools with job postings and research the options.
