Well, ya...but that's still sad. The teachers aren't paid well to begin with.

Trips to Hawaii…

This is probably it: money wasted at the district

The district paid for your aunt to go to Hawaii?

That is sad, I’m sure they would fire an employee for the same activities

1/8/22 9:14am

They do get a lot of time off. They have a very healthy lifestyle with days off

Try being a teacher first and then say they don’t need to be paid more

Is it really working if you spend all day on a message board?

1/8/22 8:41am

I've done both. Teaching is harder and more stressful.

Unfortunately, they get paid what they accept as pay just like most of us.

That is very unusual at the middle school level

TX...property taxes and taxes for schools is high

Preppy

I know some schools have cut supply budget way back for teachers & staff.

I teach 700 elementary students and get $.13 per student for supplies. ~$95

As much as I complain, we do support. It just brings up the question of WHY you

Preppy

bluebooks

Utah never keeps up w/ growth. That’s a huge expense from buildings to staffing for it. Don’t get me

Soupie

The Governor and Legislature seem set on ending school fees

1/8/22 9:13am

What percentage of the overall school budget actually makes it to the kids?
