But, I do not agree with you that teachers have an easy job and do not deserve more money. School systems are taxed with more burdens than 20 or 50 years ago. The academic expectations for the kids are higher at a younger age and this trend is not changing any time soon. And its also true that many teachers how to many students to teach at once and cannot give student the individual attention that many students need. In my opinion one of the main problems in standardized testing, especially as a requirement to graduate. Too many schools teach to the test and too much money spend on testing prep classes for tests that have no application for the real world. Also, have you ask how most teachers spend their summers? Just because they have the summer off does not mean they do not have to work. I’m sure you are not the only parent that feels that way.
