[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think people should stop using “per year” to describe leave taken within ten months not including the 39 vacation days already included.[/quote]

You're right, teachers should definitely schedule their illnesses to happen during summer and winter break. It's so inconvenient to get the flu in January.[/quote]

If you really believe these absences are based on illnesses, why do sub rates surge right before winter and spring breaks? This year probably before Memorial day but too soon to say.

Teachers want cheap flights and midyear pricing on vacations just like everyone else, please stop pretending they’re only out for illness and tragedy— you’re embarrassing yourself.[/quote]

NP but given how many people pull their kids early for breaks or return late, if the teachers have the leave why shouldn’t they take it and do the same?[/quote]

I have no objection to them doing it, I just think we should pretend that isn’t what’s happening while we create fantasies about the death of parents and children.

Principals who allow this, though, should definitely not send emails, reminding parents about “the gift of attendance”. Terrible look.[/quote]
