[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You all are missing that teachers have less annual work hours and more time off than most jobs. That's part of why the pay is lower. I don't disagree that the pay should be raised, but i think if we want to professionalize teaching, make it year round. Summer school would be great, especially to help catch kids up.[/quote] I’m a teacher and I work a ton of hours outside my standard work hours. That is the only way to do a good job especially in years 1-5 of teaching [/quote] Teachers in my city did a work-to-rule protest and we quickly found out that you cannot be an effective teacher if you only work the required hours and do the required tasks. As a parent, I would much rather see a contract that reflects the actual time and work needed to be effective and then negotiate salary and benefits based on that.[/quote]
