First year, superstar teachers (which I truly believe are unicorns) have options to make more money. They can get advanced degrees or work in poor performing schools with federal funding. The former takes time and the later no one honestly wants to do. I don't think even superstar teachers can do it year after year. As far as pay. Like most jobs the first few years are low with a steep curve. Then it tapers off to COL increases once you've put in many years. This can be said of any job. Union and nonunion.
