Yeah, wife and I are both teachers, so hard to get away for too many days. We'll leave So. Cal a little after 7pm, so should be in Vegas by 10 pm.....provided, of course, that traffic is not horrible. Be safe on both drives.
Except for the 3.5 months of vacation you get annually as teachers.......

In no place in the country do teachers get that much. And for every two paid hours of work, a teacher works one unpaid hour.
When is the last day of school in early summer and the first day in Fall? Add it up and then mix in 3-4 more weeks of spring break vacation, winter vacation and other holidays. Not real hard to figure out unless you aren't good at math. You obviously didn't teach math in 3rd grade.
Kind of hard to argue this one when everybody here attended school and knows the schedule.

Based on the link the average school year is 180-185 days or about 26 weeks or a half a year..
So as usual kevin is lying.
And for every two paid hours of work, a teacher works one unpaid hour.
No proof to that statement
But schools provide planning time built into their day.
Public schools provided teachers with an average of 266 minutes of dedicated planning time per week, according to results from the School Pulse Panel administered in December 2023. The panel surveys about 2,400 school principals representing all grade levels. That works out to about four hours and 26 minutes of planning time per week.

And we really enjoy those days of vacation. Thank you very much.

Since we work on salary, we definitely work more than a "school day", with lesson planning and grading, but it's part of being a teacher, so we don't complain about how much we "work". And we do enjoy plenty of vacation time as Jerry posted.

Jerry flunked out of grade school, so he might think that homework grades itself and tests are written by elves and fairies. Stupid Tom was kicked out of grade school, so he might not understand that considering time off one way (total days, including weekends) when it suits the argument you're trying to make and another (portion of the year) when that "proves" your point is disingenuous (big word).
Idiot fucking failure Tom dismisses the idea that teachers work one unpaid hour for every two paid He's right. It's closer to one and a half.
But I've had this argument before with our resident uneducated cretins. What does it say about someone when they belittle the importance of teachers?
