You still come in on Saturdays. While I'm not in a position to speculate to much. I would say that you're definitely not the norm. All the teachers I knew were always grading at home. They often had after school meetings because they had to submit lesson plans to the state. Just because you make more than a lot of teachers doesn't mean you make a lot overall when compared to many jobs which require equal schooling and equal time put into them. Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining, I do want to be a teacher afterall.I am a teacher, had about $60K in debt (private school), never take papers home to grade, never plan at home, hate the unions too...
I also come in on Saturdays usually to get everything ready for the next couple weeks. My lesson plans are prepared two weeks ahead of time.
P.S. I believe I'm paid very well. I make just as much or more than a lot of teachers who have been teaching longer than me.
OOC, what do you teach; grade (and subject if applicable?). I'm currently a secondary ed major with a concentration in the sciences as well as a double major in biology and I'm hoping to teach high school science.
