[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Huh? Teacher here. Staying til 4 was actually part of our contract for this reason. You're supposed to help the kids who are having trouble with the content material.

I also had to help kids who came during my lunch and free periods.[/quote]

I've never heard of teachers being allowed to say no to students who are coming to them for extra help after school. That's part of their job!!!

They're not supposed to leave at 2:30 when the last bell rings and students leave.[/quote]

Yes we can. We have contract hours. They cannot require us to work beyond them. Your kids can come to us during their study hall or before school when we are more likely to be there. Staying after contract hours is NOT REQUIRED and to insist we do it for free is ludicrous. We are humans with lives and families of our own. Have your kid ask help during the day or pay for tutoring.

I think you are unaware that different schools have different contract policies.  I think you may also want to review yours just in case before you assert your case so strongly.--teacher

I’m well aware of my obligations and my contract hours. They are exactly what I said they are. I am not required to stay after school nor are most public school teachers. [/quote]

Yes you are.. your contract say stay until 4:15.[/quote]

And the last bell rings at 4:05. Meaning there is no requirement to say 1 hour after. That’s “let the buses clear out before you leave” contract hours. Hate to break it to you, we are not required to tutor after school no matter how badly you may wish we were. [/quote]
