Subject: re: Histarut agreement -- the math doesn't add upI arrived at 20% more hours because the Histadrut agrement refers to ELEMENTARY school teachers who are currently teaching 30 hours and will be expected to teach 36 hours under the new agreement.
High school teachers teach 24 hours -- the jump is not from 24 to 36, but 30 to 36. That is 20%. It means 29 hours for high school

I don't know how Eleanor arrived at only 20% more hours....maybe that's forteachers without "mom" or "age" hours..I think that more than 1/2 of the teachers have one or the other or work injr/sr high on 24 hr basis... That means many of us will have 35-50% more work!!! But again.. talk to non-teachers and they don't understand the "deal" at all and think we're just complaining as usual..esp since "teachers have such wonderfully long summer vacations" and "coffee breaks every hour or 2"!!!!!
