As long as teachers cling to their public sector unions that negotiate against taxpayers, nothing.

As part of her Home Economics class* my daughter made a breakfast casserole and took it to school to day.

*they don’t call it that now though. Instead they call it “Facts” or something similar.

As a teacher myself, I would have appreciated getting a copy of that.

It’s called labor day! They don’t need a special day for themselves!

I totally thought this was a guilty/not-guilty female teacher-student copulation post.

For those in Louisiana just keep in mind there is a $25 cap set by the state. And of course the Louisiana Ethics Board - an institution beyond reproach - is here to enforce that rule.

My teachers in high school were crap.

One young English teacher would show up late on a daily basis. I remember watching her walk down the hallway 5-10 minutes late - she couldnt walk any slower without falling over. When she finally showed up, she had a large stack of worksheets in hand. Her idea of teaching was handing out an endless amount of busy work until the period was over. To top it all off, she was miserable to deal with. Every day she was in a rotten mood.

One older science teacher was pleasant to deal with but also showed late each and every day. He was also too lazy to write up his own test. Instead, he would use the one that came with the textbook. However, it wasnt the current textbook. The school obtained new textbooks but the test came from the discarded books. Some of the exam material wasnt covered. As a result, the grades were horrible. Pathetically enough, he won teacher of the year. As you can imagine it was based on seniority and not quality.

Another science teacher had to be 80 years old. The student grades suffered as we thought she had dementia. She was also a miserable human being.

A history teacher showed up on time but his idea of teaching was telling us to read out of the book and showing movies. Anther rotten person to deal with.

I could go on and on. If it wasnt for the lousy teacher's union they all would have been fired a long time ago.

They didnt deserve their pay, let alone a gift.

Most teachers work over summer
Teachers pro rate their checks to get payment over summer or you don’t get paid over summer
