[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What time do you typically leave during preservice week?[/quote]

At the regular end of the duty day. I’m in a high school, so that’s 3:00.[/quote]

Even during pre week?[/quote]

Yes. First, I’m busy enough to fill a full week.

But also, going back to not being treated like professionals, they monitor our comings and goings. They often plan a 2:30 meeting and take attendance to make sure we stay. (During one professional day that we had to be in the building recently, they rang the bell at the end of the day and made and announcement giving us permission to leave)[/quote]

Leadership failure.  So tired of being treated worse than the students. They can’t control them so they control us.    [/quote]

A lot of it is also because some teachers whine about inequities of time. For example it’s not fair if the specials teachers don’t have as much to set up as they do, but why do they get to leave earlier than me? So the admin tries to keep the whiny teachers at peace by doing things like this.[/quote]

I love that they force us to stay in the building until 3:00 even if I’m done, but no one cares that some days I’m there until after 5. Make it make sense.[/quote]

As a teacher, I do not claim this energy. Do you not think other professionals are forced to clock in and out based on an 8 hour day regardless of the amount of work they have? Please don't make us look bad. Happy to stay 8 hours when I'm being paid 8 hours. Plan ahead, make copies, make use of your time.[/quote]

I’m PP and a career changer. In my corporate jobs no one charged me an hour of leave if I left early for an appointment or something. I didn’t regularly leave before 5 but if I needed to there were no hoops to jump through because they know I was usually there after 5 and always met my deadlines. [/quote]
