They still have to fill their yearly work contracts with hours/days worked.

The same guy that tried to tell me I should move my kids from private to public had to explain to me why lafayette wasn’t doing any remote learning(because 10% of households don’t have internet other 90% get nothing). Glad I didn’t listen to him

I’ll take all of the downvotes coming for this and smile.
Teachers work part time.
They work 170 to 180 days a year under normal circumstances.
They average full time employee in the US works 230 days a year.
This school year, they are not working for shite. They are off from March to maybe August.
That’s 6 months.
In the Fall they worked a couple of weeks in a row here and there between all the breaks.

Most kids go to school these amount of days. Teachers are required to work more than this and they usually work more than 8hrs a day. So your math is off.
I’m not a teacher but know several. It’s not a cake job like you make it sound like as far as days off. Teachers usually have yearly contracts that include a certain amount of days. Also they are still working through this to fulfill those contracts

I'm not too pleased with my local district that is closed for the remainder of the school year. The trend of chromebooks and incorporating technology into curriculum sure came to a halt when school was closed. How hard is it to take a few weeks to move things online? They threw in the towel and started summer early. They didn't even try. I don't want to hear about no internet or cpu's at home. Everyone has a form of communication. Smartphone, tablet, etc.

Nobody forced them to be a teacher. They know what they are getting into. I don't give a shite about a pity party for long hours worked. Change professions.

My wife is a teacher.
Now instead of going to work. Getting to interact with other adults and live a normal life. She has to teach kids through a computer screen. While she stays at home and takes care of our 2 and 4.5 year old.
I can promise you she 100% wishes she was back in school teaching.

Former teacher here. Building a computer-based lesson is more time consuming than planning a classroom lesson. You have to account for variables that you would otherwise handle with instructional modeling. There are no multimedia lesson banks to pull lessons from that delivers instruction according to the standards that have to be taught. The teacher has to build each lesson.
Look at your child's standards for one instructional day. Build a media-driven lesson for each standard. Now teach that lesson and assess. Do that for 5 subjects.
The teachers that do have each lesson broken down by standards to be delivered readily aren't teachers anymore. They work for corporations that charge states and districts millions for access and I have only seen them selling Math and ELA. So, other subjects won't have those resources. Some districts won't be able to afford those resources.
It's been cleared up many times but many of you still don't understand. Teachers get paid for 9 months of work. The earnings from those 9 months are divided into 12 months. There is no summer pay. But, there is summer work. There is work when the kids aren't in school.

One time.
Then you're set for the next 10 years.

I'm talking about the work they're doing right now with distance learning. If done adequately, they're working much harder than normal. They'll be back in the class sooner than later and distance learning lessons won't matter because the focus will be back on student driven lessons.

Only if every student is forced to repeat their current grade.
And thanks for the paycheck dawg, I'll tip my hat to ya tomorrow on Toledo Bend when I make that first cast.
