Just wanted to point out an irony...
I'm an FCPS teacher and stumbled upon this website as I was doing research. It's July. I'm currently on "vacation," and yet in the past hour I have worked on completing an on-line course for professional development, read work email and wrote to colleagues about curriculum for the coming school year. If the point of this post if that teachers get too much time off, I wanted to point out that not being in the building doesn't mean I'm not working. This applies to MANY of the people on this list. And I'm not even teaching summer school.
