[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Teachers in FFX County start around $53K. That seems like a fine starting wage for a college grad. Even better considering time off in the summer.[/quote] Teachers get the summer off. They work less days a year than other professions. [b]I get 26 days of leave a year pkus holidays. A teacher gets triple.[/b][/quote] “Fewer days”. Are you saying a teacher gets 78 days of leave a year plus holidays? Just some quick math here, but that wouldn’t be only about 33 weeks of work? 365 days minus weekends = 255, minus just the 78 days and they’d be at 177. Their contracts in Fairfax are 195 days. I have a brother in a different VA county who teaches and his is 200 days. Still a good amount of time off, but not nearly triple. [/quote]
