    I don't blame teachers for wanting to leave. Kids today are ungrateful, violent, and out of control today on a scale never before seen. Parents don't parent - let alone discipline their kids, they expect the schools to do that for them, parents don't support the teachers in any way, social media has influenced and ruined their kids behavior.

    They won't last two years. It used to be five years. That was the average time that people stayed in the profession before quitting and moving on. Veteran teachers, 25+ years, are leaving in droves to either retirement or other professions and quite frankly, the idealists that are coming to fill in those positions are completely unprepared for the lack of support to which they are going to face. They should not expect support from parents, administration, the media or their colleagues. The profession is isolating and the lip service given to training within districts is condescending and for the most part worthless. They are using teachers as the scapegoat for a generation of gentle parenting and entitlement.

    I'm a teacher, and I can tell you it's the best job I ever had. The pay is great, and the benefits are better than anything I ever had in the private sector. The job security is wonderful, and we get summers off. I've never had to worry about not having a job. Unlike the dozens of people I see on LinkedIn who are unemployed and trying to get into tech or other fields. I will also say that I would never teach in FL or any other state that doesn't value teachers.

      I work 60 hours a week, have an after school job and a summer job. Most teachers work long hours for their full-time plus must sustain several side gigs to make ends meet. Plus we have summer service, nonstop PD, staff meetings, extracurriculars, and all the things you have to do outside of contract hours. Most people that aren’t “in it” have no idea. We are also 10 month employees and don’t get paid for summer months, which again, is why most of us work summers.

    • @Kat-xm3yx
      @Kat-xm3yx Місяць тому

      This is a false narrative. Teachers NEVER get 3 months off. Many work through the summer "break" which is about 8-10 weeks now, because they don't get paid enough period. There have been years when I've worked my FT teaching job and TWO additional PT jobs just to get by. on top of tgat, we arecrequired to pay out of pocket to keep our credentials up-to-date. This means, getting at least a masters degree or higher. Read some empirical research on teacher burnout. Try Learning Policy Institute for example. Get informed. As a 30+ year veteran professional educator, I am so thankful to be nearing the end of my career and not the beginning. It's a high burnout job for many reasons.

    Maybe the lowest paid. Work 9 months of the year, free education for master and doctorate. Also, mandatory pay raises. Extra pay with additional jobs and over time. Where does a 20 year out of collage or working for a degree get this money, plus full benefits.

    Teaching should only be used to start your career off. Very low threshold to get into. Sub for a year and some change, Full-time for a year or so and then pivot as soon as possible. Teaching is genuinely an “entry level “ job that doesn’t ask for 3 years experience.

      Umm, maybe some states will accept any person off the street, however when I was licensed, my state required a master’s degree plus 2 year mentorship period and being an expert in your content area of which I had to pay for and sit for 4 exams for certification. I never understood this notion from the general public that we should aspire to have a bunch of morons educating our future generations…don’t you want knowledgeable and educated people teaching your children?

    • @dccunn05

      I agree with you, I was a teacher in Florida to start of my career in education, before pivoting to HR. In Florida you only need your bachelors to get a 3 year temporary certification, before having to sit for full certification. Florida is also ranked last in teacher pay. The pay is not worth the sacrifices and abuse you go through in the classroom.

      Yes, I subbed for a couple of years and then taught full-time for year at the high school level before being forced out on budget cuts in 2011. Teacher salary in my county has been virtually the same for at least the past 20 years. This is all while the cost living in FL is skyrocketing.
