I'm contracted for 25 hours of instruction per week, and I'm expected to be at the school from 730-430. Lunch is an hour long though, and the kids have a 25 minute break after second period.

I'm in the 50-60 hour paradigm, probably in the 80s when large stacks of essays come in. I'm also teaching 6 different classes on a linear system, which comes with its pros and cons. The sixth class gets the best lesson cause I've already taught the same stuff 5 other times! I've only got 2 prepables, but when I give a summative essay to one class of 22 kids, I am essentially giving a summative essay to a total of 130 students since I teach the same class 6 times. Brutal, but lovely at the same time. I teach a total of 188 children.

Do I dare take a calculator and tap out my hourly wage...?

Not till the summer...!
