I work at a busy flying club west of the Mississippi. I charge whatever I want, but just about everyone charges $45 for Private students, $50 for anything beyond private, both ground and flight. The school keeps 25% of what we charge. Plenty of guys grossing over $5000 a month. So far, this is the best job I've ever had in my life. Bosses/owners are super cool, great environment/atmosphere, great people, planes range from good to great.
