I very much respect teachers but also it IS important to point out you mean 50 hours/week, plus about 10 weeks of vacation a year, correct? That in itself probably gives a good (15%?) salary bump above the standard 2-4 weeks.


The OP never asked for the # of weeks of vacation. I'm another teacher, but if you want to bring up vacation time, most of us teachers get closer to 15 weeks of vacation time. 9-10 weeks in the summer, 2 weeks in winter, a week in the spring and then about 8-10 holidays. The pay is only okay and the hours, when not on vacation suck (I put in 60-65 hours a week), but the vacation time is great. I just wish it was more spread out!

You are grossly underpaid. I make more and am way more junior. Ask for a raise dude.
