[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our teachers are always available after school to help kids in middle school and high school. [b]Even an elementary teacher could find some time at the end of the day to help some students. Maybe you should ask for a mentor and see what’s up[/b].[/quote]

Of course I could “find time” and I do. It’s just that time is my unpaid for personal time and I’m resentful of people simply treating it like an expectation. I would bet a great many teachers at your school who do it aren’t happy about it as well. [/quote]

I disagree ... I also doubt you worked a full 8.5 hours like most govt workers and [b]I think you have planning time during the day.[/b]

Unless you are a 1st year teacher I think your overstating.[/quote]

My little bit of planning time gets largely eaten up by meetings, or waiting in line for the one copier in the school that teachers are allowed to use. The problem with teaching is that your contract hours are only show time. All the work that makes that show happen, occurs during a teachers non contract hours, and that can easily be a full time job as well, plus teachers are expected to attend evening school events, sponsor clubs, serve on school committees. All of this occurs under non contract hours.
