195 days per year x 8 hrs a day = 1560 hrs

1560 hrs x $40 = $62,400[/quote]

This is from the NEA. http://www.nea.org/home/38465.htm Can we agree that they’d be more accurate than you?  The TOP TEN states (paying the most) to new teachers, ranges from $38,570 to $44872. Your $62K is what the NEA lists as one of the TOP TEN salaries in the US FOR an average teacher (NOT the average salary across the US).  Meaning - these 10 states are known For paying a non specialized teacher the highest amount. That is what you are using.

You want to discard the dictionary use of standard or customary. You want to discard what the average teacher makes. Again - jam that square peg into the circular hole

Additionally, using an average of teachers’ salaries includes very senior teachers, teachers of math (often paid more), and high school teachers (often paid more).

The link relates about gifting to teachers because many, many people felt it was akin to a tip.
