Teachers in Florida - and most States - have an option of being paid for the full year or the time they work. Because the ‘time they work’ gives them a higher paycheck, most opt for that... Also many teachers get part time jobs in the summer - kind of like ‘double dipping’. Please don’t cry for them... it lacks dignity.
PFFT! All you posters who have a hard-on for teachers can shove it. I feel sorry for you that you never had a teacher who influenced you in a positive way. Meh.
