Hereās the thing. Most people donāt understand that summer break is time without pay. Until we explain that to them they seriously think we are getting paid to do nothing. Iāve found success when I explain it this way: imagine you went to work each week but instead of paying you for 40 hours I paid you for 30. Then I said take the days from June to August off and I will pay you for the work you already did. Also be sure to get married and have babies and have any surgeries you need during this time.
Most say what? and then begin to understand that summer break is forced time off. We literally get 10 months pay over the span of 12 months. Some of us also donāt get a paycheck over summer and in this case itās even harder.
I do have to say that the salaries across states show a wide gap in pay but so do rents and benefits. Only public school teachers receive pensions, which leaves our private and charter schools. And I actually agree that many teachers are not the most qualified people to be in a classroom but thatās because teaching is not a respected field in our country.
My question is: would we give up the idea of teacher discounts and special programs for a higher salary?
Hey... I think exactly the way you think... the problem I found when I say exactly that to some people that they say back to me... yes you get paid THAT MUCH Money for ONLY 10 months! Some people get that for 12 months! So I say back to them... well if itās that great... why not do it yourself! Thatās when they say... me? No way... I wouldnāt want to only get paid THAT much when I can make more money doing what I do... and then they say... I wouldnāt be able to deal with any kids except my own! Ugh!
Wow... the conversation after the article was crazy! I guess we teachers have a cake walk with all the students... huh?
Right! Apparently we do have time to eat lunch everyday! Some of those people should take a day and shadow a teacher. They may get a wake up call.
Iām not sure Iāve ever seen article that was so anti-teacher! Wow.
Iām being paid almost $90,000. I budget my money, and donāt begrudge the so called summer āunpaidā
I want to leave the field, but I canāt earn $90,000 for 9 months of work.
I love to travel. Every summer I leave my high earning engineer husband at home and go on a big trip that he canāt join me on, due to his companyās measly vacation policy.
While I COULD requalify as another profession, the cost of going back to school and starting at the bottom of the ladder in a new field, isnāt worth it to me. I donāt know any other job, besides being self employed where a 9 month year is standard.
