Martin Luther King Day

The school leadership in Bullitt County is talking about giving up President's Day off and a professional development day to make up for snow days. What was wrong with Monday as a make-up day?

What the heck is a professional development day? How do they document time spent developing thier profession? Do they just take the day off or do they actually have to attend a trainning course or othewise document how they used the time?

Teachers are required to document a certain number of training hours each year. I don't know if they are required to attend training on those specific days now, but they didn't use to. However, if they didn't use those off days for training, they had to use their "unpaid" time in the summer to complete the required training.

I'm required to get additional training ALL THE **** TIME......and most of it on my own dime.......that is unless I want my job to be outsourced to some Indian.

WHO gives a crap if they have to better themselves on their own time. UNIONS ****............when we wake up and recognize that, maybe we will flourish a little.
