[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]average salary is 62K divided by 1552 hours (194 days) = 318/day divided by 8 hours = 40/hour. Actually more because teachers get personal days, as well. So, again, teachers why are you complaining? In a traditional office job this would be 80K/year. 40/hour is a decent wage even without COL!!!![/quote] Your math would be fine IF teachers worked only eight hours per day, and if they only worked the 194 days they are "on contract." I don't know ANY teachers who work only eight hours per day, nor do I know any teachers who only work their contract days. In fact, most teachers I know work (M-F) 10-12 hours/day at the school itself, then an additional 2-4 hours/day at home. On average, teachers I know work approximately 13 hours/day Monday-Friday, and an additional 5-10 hours each weekend. They also work at least half of their holidays throughout the school year.
