I would say, without doing an actual survey, that this is less than 50% and this includes teachers who need to go to school for upgrading their license or completing requirements, etc. For the most part, teachers here take their vacations seriously. It is a time to relax, enjoy family, and regroup. I do think that some teachers do spend part of their summer reading at least one professional book. Elisa

I know that at every school you can find at least one more more teachers that say come the end of the year that they are not going to have anything to do with teaching all summer. I am really curious as to how many teachers in your school, to your knowledge, actually take it upon themselves to do their own professional development. This can be in the form of reading, classes, or workshops. What percentage of teachers at your school actually do this?
