IUSD Board does something right

Teachers get a 4 percent raise; not much at the end of the day, but a start. John Jaegar, one of the all-time champion letter writers in the Irvine World News, has a letter today botching about how top of scale teachers make $85K for 9 months of work.

I taught a junior achievement class for 4 hours one day. It was all I could do to keep the kids engaged and interested. The prep time alone was 4-5 hours. Now, multiply that by 6-7 hours a day, 5 days a week and then add a few hours a day to grade papers. If its high school or junior high, add a few more hours.

I think John Jaeger ought to pull his head out of his ass and commend teachers for sacrificing opportunities to make lots more money in order to serve a higher purpose and teach our kids.
