[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I didn't say I don't plan for summer - I actually work quite a bit over summer, and have for over a decade. Many of us have side hustles and summer jobs.

Yes, you can plan to stretch out your pay over 12 months, but it's just that - stretching it out. You're still working and getting paid for only 10 months worth of work, not 12. [/quote]

Or, consider it that you get paid annually, but are only expected to work 10 of those 12 months.  You can choose whether to get paid all 12, or have the paychecks align with the months in which you work.[/quote]

I'm sorry, are you stupid?

Teachers work 10 months and are paid 10 months.  If their "salary" were applied across 12 months, it would be significantly smaller.

I currently teach for the MSDE in the juvenile detention facilities.  We technically earn significantly more than city or county teachers, but hourly we are on the exact same pay schedule.  We, however, work Christmas break and all summer, do not take spring break or fall break or any holidays, and are thus compensated that time where regular public schools are not.  They are paid for the time they work. 10 months.  [/quote]
