[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe the experiment with hiring these Ivy Teach for America types should be declared over. They will just leave anyway, and go off to work for a nonprofit or quit when they marry a banker. What's so great about "gentrifying" DCPS teachers anyway? It used to be that DCPS staff were of D.C. They were from the D.C community and they understood D.C. And they were happy to have a career and lifetime career with DCPS. [/quote] In other words, you're saying to accept low expectations as a permanent reality and manage the installation accordingly.[/quote] Are you saying teachers from dc who went to college and graduated with a teaching degree aren't quality teachers? Why would it be lowering expectations to hire someone familiar with the area with a qualified degree? I'm a 10 year teacher and I don't think teach for America and those type of programs are the answer. The answer starts with leadership. [/quote]
