Great vacation time during the school year.

You have the same holidays as your children so you do not have to find childcare. You have the entire summer off to relax and reflect.

NYC DOE teachers work 181 days per year. If we work over the summer we get additional pay.

This is obviously the best part of the job!

You have 15 day of vacation days and are pay. Im not sure about Paid Time Off.

only as a full time teaacher do you qualify for benefits.

Summers off and 10 days per year

Summers and some holidays off so you can't complain. As for vacation you only get 10 days during the school year so planning is essential, it is all as per the principal so make sure to ask them how they feel about using more than 10 days a year. Just because you have saved them does not mean your principal will approve such extended days.
