How many teachers are leaving your school next year?

Losing 24 teachers in one year is not normal at all. Teaching is hard and teachers hold on to good work environments tightly. I’m not part of this school community but considering the incessant discussion about Navy on this website this school environment has drama written all over it.

This. I love my school. We lose some teachers due to commute issues but not due to the actual school. We are a late ES in a high traffic area so if you don’t live close, commute can be awful.

wow, looks like grapevine here was very close to the total

Not at all. A lot of the people leaving aren’t even classroom teachers. And of the ones that are leaving, only 5 are actually classroom teachers. So much for the “whole teams are leaving” lie. Lol.

Meant to add only 5 classroom teachers are actually transferring to another school. Other classroom teachers are actually moving out of FCPS or just taking a non classroom teacher position in FCPS. To me this is about not being happy with teaching in general. Not necessarily a problem with the principal. Still waiting to here legit issues with the principal.

Moving out of FCPS means they live in a neighboring county and don’t like Navy enough anymore to deal with the commute. It used to be worth it to them because it was a good work environment. Not anymore. They’re probably going to work in LCPS or PWCS.

People changing levels clearly wanted out of Navy and possibly also just looking for a change, but I suspect more of the latter.

Teachers don’t just leave a school if they like it. Going somewhere new is a huge pain. This is a message from the teachers and staff whether you want to believe it or not.

Exactly. People most usually don't leave jobs they are happy at. Something is wrong and people want to act like everything is fine. Everything is not fine. The "sub" was right all along. Stop lying to us.

Something is wrong in the county. It's the staff and students who are taking the hit....not good.

Like has been said before, it’s not unusual with a new principal. A new principal shouldn’t possibly be expected to replicate the exact same environment as a previous principal. And some of the people leaving are not even classroom teachers.

I teach with an amazing single teacher in her 7th year. She has two roommates to afford living a reasonable distance from school. She’s been saving up to rent on her own and is now moving into a studio MIL apartment with a kitchenette attached to the home of an acquaintance. She’ll never be able to buy a home nearby without a partner who makes significantly more.

My husband and I got down payment help ($60,000) from his blue collar saver parents to buy our $400,000 3/2 fixer upper SFH in 2016. If we hadn’t bought then, we’d be priced out.

Most of our young teachers drive from out of county. The two-teacher families I know got in on the housing ladder years ago or are still renting in their forties.

Some. The majority are or have been in past years.

Nope. Only 5 actual full time classroom teachers transferring within FCPS.

A lot of staff leaving FCPS are counselors, aides, resource teachers and what not.

Since when is an aide or a counselor a teacher?

Stop saying that-every teacher/specialist keeps these schools working properly. If you are losing SPED and ESOL....art or music, etc it is a loss to a school and everyone feels that loss.

Probably saying this because their kid isn't SPED...however if there isn't enough SPED teachers(which is a constant problem) guess what the "regular" classroom(teachers and students) will be impacted....we are an inclusive county.
