so my wife finally got going as a teacher

[Blake]

well, my significant other finally got into the teaching ranks out at
a high school in the southern parts of SA. woo hoo.

Lemme tell ya though.......however bad you have heard that teachers have it,
go ahead and multiply that by 20 and you have an idea of what she's
gone through.

Forget the kids that get ready to throw down right there in the
classroom on a daily basis or the ones that drop F bombs, and when she
tells them to cut it out, they drop 1000 more.....
she got to her class room and had to bring in her own desk, desk
chair, waste baskets and yes, even her own chalk board eraser.

oh, and the intercom that is supposed to page the adminstrative
offices in case of an emergency.......she doesn't have one...

it's so bad, it's almost hilarious.

oh, almost forgot the 7am - 10pm days she has put in so far.

[S_A_Longhorn]

Couldn't pay me enough to teach high school.

[PM5K]

Even Rejects From Hell Can Learn

[S_A_Longhorn]

Sure, but I don't have the patience. And that's why I'm not a teacher, thankfully.

[JudynTX]

Glad to hear your wife finally got a teaching position.

[Blake]

Glad to hear your wife finally got a teaching position.

yeah thanks, it was a last second deal.

I'll enjoy the extra $43000+ per year that she'l be bringing in over the near $0she has brought in the last 5 years, but this week has been hell.

[Blake]

sure, and Tony Parker can dunk, but it aint gonna happen any time soon.

Mrs. ASF has another year to go to her degree. She's aiming for elementary level, though, for the reasons you listed.

[spursfan09]

and this is why I wanted to become an accountant instead.

[Sunshine]

Takes a special person to teach highschool, particular in a not-so-good school. Bless her. And good luck!

[T Park]

Congrats to her :)

She really wasn't expecting this and she's been preparing to be a teacher?

I think theres only so much you can prepare for honestly.

[baseline bum]

I have a friend who taught high school in LA Unified School District who had one kid who wouldn't shut the fuck up, so he grabbed him by his ankles and pulled him out of his desk and into the hallway, and then told him he didn't give a fuck where he went, but to never come back to his class again. :lol

If more teachers would do that, I think the kids would straighten out a bit.

Which is one reason I could NEVER home school.

[The Reckoning]

she should get her phd and make some $ at the university level

[MannyIsGod]

I'd rather work at a fast food place than work as a teacher for that kind of money. You make jack shit when you factor in the hours. Its retarded.

As thankless as teaching is, you still get the three month vacation. $43,000 for 9 months isn't too bad if she's smart enough to make the kids do the grading on everything but the exams.

Congrats, my wife just got her certification for Special Ed, she didn't want to do HS so she was holding out. Now, today, she just accepted a job doing CPS. My wife has a huge heart, don't know how long that will last.

Obviously she's not doing it for the money, so long as she's happy.

TX is probably one of the few states that's hiring teachers all the time...at least NISD is since a new school opens every other day.

Isn't CA cutting a bunch of programs and laying off teachers? My B-I-L's girlfriend just got her degree to teach and her 1st year she has to teach in East LA or some area like that (something to do with where she got her degree. I think it was Cal State DH and the job placement you have to do).

Michigan has like 5 of the top teaching programs in the country - put a surplus of well-qualified teachers together with the 9% unemployment rate here and crap economy, and you get a whole lot of unemployed teachers. There are a couple people in my information science program getting their masters in library science so they can have other career options.

[CubanMustGo]

Teaching is a tough job and you're not paid all that much ... but you can take a good deal of the summer off, the benefits are better than you're going to see in other jobs paying similar amounts, there is still a retirement package (again unlike similar-paying jobs), and you're not likely to have your job outsourced to Bangalore.

But I can't see doing HS in an urban district no matter what. All the best and thank her for her service.

Tell them to come work for Northside! :lol

Seriously though, that's a shame.

[MannyIsGod]

I've contemplated teaching but I don't think I could do anything prior to college. I just hate high school kids. I really fucking do. And I'd snap.

You could always teach Poker in the adult education classes Northside offers twice a year :p:

[Jekka]

I've always heard that middle school was the worst.

One of my best friends teaches middle school math, and I have heard some crazy, crazy stories from him. He's an amazing teacher, though - he does it because that's what he really feels called to do and that it makes a difference, and 70% of his kids in his TAKS math class (who had failed the year before) passed this year. As horrible as the kids can be, though, I've heard worse stories about the administrative bullshit he's had to go through. No one wants to make it easier for you.

Your friend's story sounds like my girlfriend's.

To succeed at the HS level, you just need to have a Dylan/Dylan contest.

Not worth the pay for that shit.

[remingtonbo2001]

Teaching is something I will have to encounter if I proceed as a High School Counseler.

I believe 3 years are required, plus the obvious master's degree.

However, the salary is considerbly higher, approximately $70,000/year.

[ShoogarBear]

You've gotta be kidding. Counselors make more than teachers?

Counselors at Roosevelt were worthless.

[ploto]

No they don't.

In most districts, librarians and counselors (who must have a master's) get paid on the same salary scale as a teacher with a master's degree- except for circumstances where they work a longer school year so they make more. And a master's is only worth about $1000 more per year.

[AlamoSpursFan]

You've gotta be kidding. Counselors make more than teachers?

Counselors at Roosevelt were worthless.

This is true. In 4 years there, I think I saw my counselor once. And that was just a "Hi, I'm your counselor!" meeting.

:lol

[Jekka]

No they don't.

In most districts, librarians and counselors (who must have a master's) get paid on the same salary scale as a teacher with a master's degree- except for circumstances where they work a longer school year so they make more. And a master's is only worth about $1000 more per year.

School librarians usually get paid more than just a teacher with a masters - especially if they have media training. School media specialists here in MI can make upwards of $55k/y, and that's not really unusual for urban districts.

[Bigzax]

i lasted one semester at kennedy in the fall of 97...yeah...fuck teaching ingrates with shitty parents...

5 ingrates per class and the other 25 suffer...with zero supports from the admins, i couldn't take that shit...

God Bless those that can...


bring back the hitstick!!!

[TDMVPDPOY]

dont forget the sexual harassment that comes along with the job,

or one day she might appear on chris hansens show.

[remingtonbo2001]

Yes, they do.

However, it wouldn't surprise me to see, in some circumstance, a guidance counselor to on a pay rate similar to a teacher.

I can't speak for elementary or middle school, but I would assume high school counselors having a heftier workload.

And I can't confirm the 3 month vacation. I believe they may have a 2-4 week vacation during summer.

Northside's pay scale

[CharlieMac]

I teach in a not so great part of town and I don't have the issues your wife has. But it's all on the support you have on campus.

I'll throw this out though, I'll take dealing with inner-city students in a high school over some of the parents in high schools in northside or Alamo Heights anyday.

And yes, as cheesy as it sounds, if you love seeing your students suceed, then the 43k is worth. Plus, you cant beat summer school pay.

[Anti.Hero]

It is nice not having to pay into social security. I'll give them that.

[ploto]

Believe me I know what I am talking about.

In the NISD a librarian gets paid on the same scale as a teacher with a Master's Degree. http://www.nisd.net/hr/compensation/PayScales0809/200809TchrPay.htm

NEISD works the same way- example job posting.
http://www.neisd.net/employment/teacher/Librarian6.html

Boerne ISD- same way if you check the charts:
http://www.boerne-isd.net/uploaded/administration/human_resources/Teachers_&_Other_Professionals_08-09.pdf

You may see pay differences for jobs that require work weeks in the summer but they are still basically at the same rate per day.

[ploto]

Yes, they do.

TERMS OF EMPLOYMENT
SALARY: Teacher Salary + Stipend
WORK DAYS: 202

The salary is still based upon the salary for a teacher with the extra work days plus a very small stipend.

[Bigzax]

seriously though...when the administration can smack those asses with a big stick again...education can get back on track...

till then...the pay just won't be enough...

[ploto]

The State of Texas even lumps them all together:

State Minimum Salary Schedule for Classroom Teachers, Full-Time Librarians, Full-Time Counselors, and Full-Time Nurses (Section 21.402(c), Texas Education Code)

[SpursWoman]

Funny, I got paddled with the big stick when I was a freshman at Roosevelt.

And considering I hated the adminstrator that, well, administered it ... it wasn't as fun as it was cut out to be. :fro

[Blake]

for those that got a somewhat negative perception of teaching from what I originally posted, just wanted to throw out a two-month-in update....

now that's she's shown that she's gonna stay awhile, she has gotten more and more supplies, tools, ideas, etc to help make her life more pleasant.

She also finally has all the finalized rosters that come equipped with parent phone numbers to which she has taken the time to call all the jerky students parents and discussed their behaviors.
(Listening to these conversations with some of these parents has been disheartening and disgusting in some instances. How parents take their kids' side or make excuses for them in these situations is beyond me.)

Many of the rotten eggs have removed themselves from class due to their excessive absences and some have been removed due to their behavior, so she is actually getting some production out of them and many that were borderline have now turned away from the darkside and are enjoying the class.

She is now loving what she is doing and feels she is in the right place at the right time.

Life be good in the Blake household.

Thanks for all the words of encouragement........I passed them along.

[JoeChalupa]

I think a student's bad behavior in school needs to be dealt with and begins at home. Now I know that not all parents can control their kids behavior in school but I don't expect teachers to have to spend time disciplining when they are teaching. Proper respect for teachers begins at home.

[JoeChalupa]

it think once she adjusts to the schedule, working 9 months a year for that amount of money isn't all that bad.

I've always heard that "working 9 months out the year" is BS.

They do typically work that many hours when they first start out because they have to develop their entire curriculum, take longer grading because it's new to them, etc.

Once they have a few years under their belt, that number drops significantly for most.

can't give you an exact minute by minute breakdown, but there are plenty of incidentals that add up that you don't realize that you don't expect.

I've gone and helped her do some things in the classroom myself on Saturday such as setting up a power point projector, hanging up posters, decorations.
You have the paper grading, phone calls, before/after school tutoring for those that ask and make appointments, after school meetings, lesson plans and more that I'm not thinking about all add up to anywhere from 60-70 hours a week.

I have a friend who taught science to 9th graders at Beaumont Ozen for a few months, his BP went way up, gave him a few transient ischemic strokes, had to quit. He had to break up many fights ... between girls. Had to quit for medical reasons.

Teachers of such schools have tough jobs and high turnover rates. I think the average K-12 teaching career in TX in under 5 years, about the same as the NFL. :lol

I know teachers with 20 years under their belts who still work from 7 AM to 6 PM every day- plus time on weekends. Others add in time for extra curricular activities, committees, etc... It depends on their dedication.

yeah...i guess i'm just jealous about the summer months. i'll probably never take a real vacation during those months because that's our busy time.

anyway, a friend of mine in his late 20's just started teaching 3rd grade and he says it's crazy tough...i guess it's hard to understand unless you experience it first hand...if she can handle it and likes it i'm glad it's working out for ya'll...i'm really interested in seeing how she likes the extended time off during the summer and around christmas, what is that like 3 weeks?

if you think about it, they get the 2 1/2 summer months, 1 week thanksgiving, 2 weeks Christmas, 1 week spring break, and then 9 days of personal/sick leave......that's closer to 4 months off during the year.......definitely a perk.....

I also think that some teachers work a lot harder than others depending not just on the grade level, but also the content area.

who in their right mind would post this personal shit on a message board like this :lolIt was a different place.


sidenote, :lol at Derp spending his night digging this upSidenote? Derp pulls this shit every time someone on his enemies list makes him look so stupid even he realizes it.


So it happens pretty much every other night.

Haven't watched in years.. I just read articles bashing it. The reunion shit was the same rehashed garbage they've done like 4 times in the last 5 years

Extreme Rules was a very good show til the shit Lesnar ending. EVERY match was good to great, sans the chicks.

Things are about to get real interesting. Vince gave Paul Heyman and Bischoff real, actual power to run each brand as they see fit so long as long as ran by Vince. Using more foul language and roughing up broads again...it's got no choice but to change.

And if AEW keeps doing the dumb shit like having quadraplegics in battle royals or the stupid ass Hadoken, Chikara nonsense for the indy fanboys, they're going to lose this fight fast. Already bad enough the Young Bucks are going to get tumors from all the thigh slapping they do...and Cody's ego needs walking back a bit, you can already see it growing.

Back in the day it was damn near all SA locals and they used to hang out irl....it was completely different and even more clique(ish) than it is now.
