[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You get nervous when you are new to a job. Same thing with teachers. And they have alot of teens watching your every step. Watching and criticizing and whipsering about them. Alot of paperwork and it's continuous. And teachers have to work after hours too, grading the students work, answering emails from parents, talking to administrators and other teachers for guidance but they are busy too.

Don’t forget all the trainings teachers have to do on their own time. Bloodborne pathogens, test security, staff health awareness, trainings related to diabetic students, synergy, canvas, leader in me…it goes on and on. Then there is the contradicting central office staff giving you one set of guidelines while principals do the exact opposite and claim “this is how we do it here”. Principals also demand the physical classrooms and online classrooms be decorated a certain way. But they don’t actually give you any supplies to do this other than a crappy Dell laptop. Then there are all the meetings. Meetings about meetings and then the agendas sent ahead of time. Then the notes and action items sent afterwards. If you teach multiple grades you’re really screwed. Then there are those of us teaching without textbooks or other necessary instructional materials because of poor school administration. All this can be yours for a demoralizing pay! Even better if you have a master’s and lots of experience because then MCPS can really mess with you by only paying you for 8 years of experience. [/quote]
