Actually, it’s more like 10.5 when you consider all the days teachers are there without kids. Considering most professional jobs have 2-6 weeks of vacation every year, theres really not that much difference in time actually working.
The kids are there 180 days each school year. So 6 months. The average teacher is not working an extra 4.5 months without students. That's just a lie. Now if you're talking about coaches, especially those that do strength and conditioning, that's accurate.

180 days/5 days a week, 36 weeks/4 weeks per month = 9 months. Factor in staff development/student holidays at a rate of 1 per month, 9 additional days which is almost 2 weeks = 9.5 months.
Teachers are generally required to do staff development before the school year, and they have to do end of year things after the students are no longer in school = another two weeks = 10 months. And that's not taking into account things like working late/weekends.
