First off teachers are public servants who work for tax payers. this is where your money comes from. second lets figure an hourly pay 180 days worked and lets give the benefit of 10 hour day. this covers the so called homework they do. now divide into 59000.00 the average for seneca

i come up with $32.77 an hour??

more then cops ? why do they object to pitching in to pay medical insurance coverage when those who make less pay , that is if they can even get insurance. we the taxpayers pay the teachers wages. you decided to be public servants !!
