Teaching Summer School
Educators are sharing the financial realities of accepting positions teaching summer school.
- “I am so sick and tired of hearing about summer school as a solution to anything pandemic related for students.” –Teacher in California
- “Oklahoma Teachers, you owe NOBODY an explanation for not returning to the classroom, not working summer school, or doing PD over the summer. You don’t owe anyone a thing.” –Teacher in Oklahoma
- “I did one year and I was burnt out before the school year started. I only had 2 weeks off all summer. Now I just sub a few times during the summer for the extra money.” –Elementary School Special Education Teacher in Texas
- “I volunteered for our summer school too. We get $40 per hour for 24 hours total.” –Middle School Teacher in California
