Additional unpaid duties, taking on more students despite union terms on classroom sizes, filling in for other teachers despite losing either our prep period or lunch (often times both unpaid), having to be more involved in the IEP and 504 process (writing these accommodation plans which counselors and admin are supposed to do), SGOs, weekly lesson planning as opposed to monthly plans, Professional development, department meetings forced by admin, more PD but now with HOMEWORK FOR TEACHERS, playing actual therapist for students, and the list goes on. It's largely a lot of administrative duties that the actual admin is supposed to do not teachers, all unpaid outside of contract hours of course. This isn't accounting for all the things we already do on a regular basis that is required of our duties, it's a lot and the expectations keep on rising and suddenly new responsibilities get tact on.
