Try living in NYC on 50k a year. And remember that half the teachers make less than that.

John,
50k is outstanding pay for a part-time job.

The teachers get all local and federal holidays, an extra day at Thanksgiving, two weeks at Christmas, one week spring break, all weekends, and all summer off. No travel, no nights away from home, top quality bennies, clean comfortable work environment and no supervision.

On top of all that, very few established teachers work 40 hour weeks.
If they do work summers, they get extra pay.

I estimate at least a 30% pay differential for excessive time off.
