Hi All, I've been following the thread about teachers not being paid for yard/bus duty or "spiritual time" with pupils. I fully understand and appreciate Esther's thoughts and words on her special time praying with her pupils. I also think that Judi G. and others should turn to the union if they're being jilted by their schools not recognizing written agreements. I also question what will be done to compensate teachers next school year when we're not returning lost hours; am I being overly optimistic that we'll be off the streets for that long? Laurie
