It is unfortunate that the Standard Times continues to degrade teachers.

Steve DaCosta and the ST should be ashamed....we are not the reason for this economic situation.

I agree with the previous posts.

Using teachers for class warfare is shameful. So, to play back; EVERY other career requiring our level of education leads to potential income well above 100k a year...we don't even have the ability to earn what are peers do.

The ST is teacher bashing again today! If we take a day we are abusing the system and if we don't use them we are trying to get a "back door bonus" according to our local paper....Stop buying the ST!!

Most reasonable citizens know that they get a lot more out of teachers than what they pay them. Anyone who actually knows a teachers knows that teachers spend MANY hours outside the class room planning, correcting, in meeting, workshops etc. The public definitely gets its money worth.
