So...they're not getting paid today, right?

I get it sucks, but real school is ongoing. Summer School isn't so suck it up and do the fucking job underway.

Uhm... don't teachers get checks year round? As in, this is money they are working to earn for the last 9 months? -- nm - Spawn May 2, 09:38 8
- From what I've understood, teachers can get either a 10month or 12month pay cycle. - Will Hunting May 2, 09:40 7
  - If you are working 10 months but have the pay spread out so you're receiving 12 months of pay for that work, then essentially they will be working for - kelly May 2, 10:09 3
    - Right, in the summer when the school year is over. And this situation is likely to be paid for in time for that to be averted. - Will Hunting May 2, 10:11 2
      - How "likely" are we talking about here, though? -- nm - znufrii May 2, 10:14 1
        
        My guess, 98%. You have a contract in place for a vital service. - Will Hunting May 2, 10:22
  - (Also, sick days may or may not be docked depending on their contract) - Reagen May 2, 09:46
  - Each system will vary, but my pay is chopped up into 12 and I get July and August's pay the first two weeks of July. -- nm - Reagen May 2, 09:43 1
