Grossly overpaid...
I'm calling BS.
He must be a sub. Because his pay is not what is listed for NC teachers
Is he dividing by 12 months or by the time he actually works??? Three months off should not be divided in - AND he should be working. He actually has a 9-month job and is UNEMPLOYED for 3 months. (Signed, a teacher). I had a mentor who worked at Disneyland during the summers and said a lot of teachers did.
Just Common Core math - he should be using the Real Math.
He says his "$1,715/month" comes out to "$53/day."
- The math (1,715/53) means he works 32.4 days a month.
He says it equals "$6.69/hour."
- The math would mean he works 8-hours/day for all those 32 days a month.
He's an incompetent lying idiot who should be fired and sued for the return of his past unearned "earnings."
An entry-level North Carolina teacher, who has a bachelor’s degree, a teacher certification and up to three years teaching experience, starts her career at $30,430 per year as of 2012, reports North Carolina Public Schools.
Subs earn less than an actual full time teacher...even if they are working full time hours
I am stealing that pic
I wonder if he is counting his job as 40 hours/ week, 52 weeks/ year. It’s not going to prorate well across three months of VACATION.
Teachers always like to count the hours they spend grading papers and prepping
This guy is mostly likely a sub not a teacher for a school
Good variables to consider, Pepsi. Thanks. The teachers around here always whine too. There’s never enough money for them, the district is always broke BUT the Janitors are in the Teamsters Union and get $50 an hour. Since it is not a business and it is not THEIR money, there’s no real accountability and very little Common Sense.
These “educators “ can take a leap. All they do is whine. All gripe that they are underpaid and over worked. I call BS. Most “work” for about 8 months a year, have excessive benefits and nice retirement plans. Of course, how dare anyone criticize their racket...encase it is always FOR THE CHILDREN .
In Georgia, Teachers start at near $50,000. They get GREAT insurance, GREAT pension, and 2+ months off (not necessarily continuous), plus other great benefits.
Sounds to me like the teachers union is taking a good chunk of his/her paycheck.
I don't think it was ever intended to support a household.
It was something women did before marriage, something they went back to after the babies came and she could have the same calendar as them.
It wasn't never intended to be a lucrative career.
It's probably not popular to say this but it's true.
My monthly take home was $745 in 1993.
Granted, that was after GI Bill was taken out, and room and board was provided at no cost.
No way for a 10 year teacher.
THAT IS THE QUESTION!!!
Anyone else who had as much abject failure in their jobs would be fired. I already know that I’m going to hear all of the reasons and I understand them well. Parents suck, teachers unions suck blah blah.
My Father was an educator and during summer break he painted houses.
I remember in high school many of my teachers had "summer" jobs. Our football coach and history teacher also painted houses, I know some who sold insurance, there are things you can do besides sitting around and bitching about the consequences of your life choices.
this doesn’t pass the smell test
Pure bullshxt.. probably a math teacher which is why he’s pathetic at math.
BINGO
That is the issue in my opinion. Administration is paid unreal salaries in most districts. In many schools there are several vice principals and other important folks that get large salaries. Most are invisible if you try to reach them, and students never seem to see them so not even sure what work they are busy doing to earn those salaries.
When I was in school we always knew the principal well, he seemed to be everywhere- walking the school, making a point to know the students, keeping up with what was going on on campus- popping in a classroom to observe for a few minutes or longer. The principal made sure teachers, cafeteria staff, and maintenance people had what they needed and did their jobs and the school ran smoothly. The principals used to be paid just a little more than teachers and were earning their money. Everyone used to know what the principle did, now they are usually paid far more and no one knows what they are doing.
Teachers need to be well paid, then we can demand great teachers.
