RE: Question for ALL THE TAXPAYER abuse, anti-ballpark, negative folks...

Summer school is a thing of the past. There are STAAR test administrations for those who failed but that is about it. We are not forced to do anything.
You are correct however that teachers can elect to have their pay checks strung out to 12 months a year but the pay does not change. All teachers get paid for only 183 days of work with NO PAID VACATION.

You have it easy. You get to lecture to adults that want to learn and are paying out of their pocket to be there.
Give me a break.
I have to teach 150+ kids U. S. History. 99% of them have no interest in U.S. history whatsoever.
99% of them will stop listening to you after 10 min. if you lecture them.
On top of that, I have handicapped, learning disabled, behavioral challenged dyslexic and students who don't know English.
You make me laugh. You think you got it tough?
While you get to talk for hours about something you love to adults who want to listen to what you have to say, I spend hours trying to find creative ways to get teenagers to appreciate American history at a high level so that they will have an opportunity to pass a standardized test that most Americans would fail in a heartbeat.
