[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I previously was a teacher. I did work nearly every evening. I was at school 2 hours before it began and at school an hour after it ended. I did all I could to enrich each of my students. It was a tremendous amount of work. This was FIRST grade. For those that aren't putting in extra hours, P.S. IT SHOWS. You are described as "average" behind your back or "eh" or fill in whatever defines mediocre. If you are not doing work at home and on the weekends, you are doing the bare minimum...[/quote] I teach young children, too. There is a lot to do! I get it...ESPECIALLY if you want to do your job well. This age group requires A LOT of differentiation, prep time, communication with parents, hands-on "dirty" work, enthusiasm (even when you have to fake it,) and being "ON" 24/7....and SO much more. But I LOVE it....and, YES, wish that I got paid what I deserve for such an important job, and a job so well done...[/quote]
