[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I get that teachers need more time, but why does that mean a school holiday for kids. If you are salary that often means you will work extended hours on occasion as required. If I am in meetings for 8 hours (happens often) and I have to meet a deadline, that means I am working late that day. An occasional TWD quarterly is fine but we shouldn't get jerking around with lesson plans requiring a day off.

If teachers need training, that should happen during the summer. [/quote]

I would love for FCPS to pay us for summer training. The 8 hours for training we got in August was easily 12 hours in reality. Then they added another 6 hours after that - no day was given for that - all completed in our “off time”.[/quote]

Yes you should absolutely get paid to do the training. [/quote]

But at the same time, lots of occupations do training on their own time. I am trying to understand the complaint here. [/quote]
Why do you want to perpetuate that culture? I'm all for people having work/life balance. (Not a teacher, btw)[/quote]

This doesn't even make sense. [/quote]
