[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Preschool teacher. Low SAT scores. Do not work after 3:00. Such an easy job! Paid during summer...yes, BUT $ taken out of Sept-June paychecks in order to be paid during summer.[/quote] I teach Pre-K. Agree with what you posted and also with what the other teacher said. I'm often in my building until 6 pm (school starts at 8 am). Not only did I have high SAT scores, I also have an M.A. Another misconception (on the part of adults, of course) is that I am to be, at all times, a slightly ditsy magical fairy princess who is constantly smiling, akin to Cinderella at Disney World. Sorry, I'm human. When I do have an infrequent [i]mildly[/i] grumpy "off" day, the perception is that I'm an evil shrew who needs to change my line of work. Please, parents, align yourself with reality. I love my job and my kids, but like you, I'm not infallible. [/quote]
