+1 agree

So what would you set their salary at then? Keep in mind that at a certain point Teachers and Principals are making 6figures.

IMO, a teacher's job is a lot harder than an administrator's job.

I'm not a teacher, but even I know that an admin job is a lot easier and cushy than a teacher's job. Maybe those admins should teach for a year to get a sense of how their policies are really impacting teachers and kids.

You don't pay based on how "hard" a job is to perform- you pay based on how hard it is to fill with a qualified candidate.

Good riddance. These would be all the bums that were hired by Lazy Jack and Monifa.

They'll take a job in Howard County.

Given the state of MCPS, I'd say they haven't been hiring qualified candidates.

They should go teach for a year.

This! And how difficult a job is often person dependent. There a plenty of teachers who will tell you they’d never want to be an admin and have to deal with the things they do.

please. Who wouldn't want an office job where you can work remotely and get pad six figures. That's the kind of job I have. I don't have to deal with screaming kids all day.

I like how he just said that the budget is unsustainable and 90% of it is personnel and then he decides to hire more overhead Chiefs and their subs.

No, it's a reorg, and they have to apply.

It's one way to save money. Private companies do it all the time. Went through it with a FAANG.

FAANG companies do it for a really specific purpose AND it’s not well received there either it’s just the state of play. They counteract the resentment and discontent with high salaries, bonuses, stock options and other benefits. Not to mention a larger talent pool.

Why don’t you go ask some teachers then. Ask all of them if they want to be AP, Principal, or Chief. Most teachers like kids so dealing with them all is not a problem.

Hoping for a clean sweep in the Office of Special Education, starting at the top. It has been a mess for a long time and getting worse!

We're not attracting good candidates, so you want to offer less for those positions... Make that make sense.

This is great news. He needs to cut central office positions overall and also replace some of the people who are really bad at their jobs, particularly higher up the chain. Very happy to hear about this reorg.

Not to mention he notes hiring more experienced staff which means higher salaries. So is he planning to hire less experienced staff for Special Education or pay the less. An area where it’s already hard to hire.

They should look at jobs that probably became unnecessary when the world computerized like counselors. They used to meet eithbstudents, administer tests, manually enter courses, etc. Now most of their job can be done by the students and their families. They could probably cut half of them.

The video was pointless without saying the plan.

I thought it was tongue in cheek that heads would roll when he had his hand on the proverbial “red button” and they all ask him to push it.
