We can save more on the education front of our taxes by compensa

Dennisville - We can save more on the education front of our taxes by compensating teachers for their actual time worked, as in paying for the standard 40 hours per week, and maybe adding an additional 10 hours per week since they all claim to work at home after hours. Fifty hours times 26 weeks per year that they work (school year is only 180 days or half a year). That's 1,300 hours, versus the 2,080 hours a typical 40 hour per week, year-round employee works. $68,650 (median salary in N.J. for a teacher) for a year at 2,080 hours is $33 per hour. $33 times 1,300 hours is $42,900, a savings of $25,750 per teacher.
