I'm in NY & our school year ends late- June 24th.
I have two weeks off & agreed to work the first 3 weeks of summer school - July 11-29. I'll be off most of August. The HS Nurse and I run two physical days with the district Doctor for sports & have to be around the first couple days of modified football practices to clear athletes.
I worked July last year too and didn't mind it. I'm relatively new at the school thing and am sure the novelty of summer school will wear off in the next year or two.
I said I wasn't going to work and then got suckered into it (as I often do) after the district nurse gave me the sob story about being short staffed. I'm only doing a week, though and at $30/hr, I can't complain too much. I know I'll be happy I did when school shopping for kids school clothes rolls around at the beginning of August. Until then, I'll sit in silence in the clinic and whine about how I'm working while everyone else is off enjoying their summer! lol
