That is what a lot of people assume and a lot of people are wrong. A lot of it depends on the principal. So, some teachers get more days off than others. All the breaks that teachers used to get off like spring, summer, fall, Christmas, etc are filled with p.d. trainings, faculty meetings, preparing not only your classroom but the school in general, book studies, etc. The teaching career isn't what it used to be, and it seems to be getting worse every year. Like almost every job, more and more is being asked of the employee. With that being said, something had to be done with the pension system. Was this the answer or was it the best answer? I have no idea.

I do wonder if some of the teachers\coaches do decide to go ahead and get out while the getting out is good.

A question I've always had is why Kentucky has these absurd requirements for teaching in the first place? Why do teachers have to get their masters in this state?
