[quote=Anonymous]15% turnover is probably pretty average-factor in that this is a huge county, many teachers live in other counties and leave to work closer to home, to take promotions to other positions, or for a change. Higher than that in terms of turnover probably signals an issue between the administration and the teachers. It is a big pain to leave a school as a teacher if you don't really have a reason. As far as initial "placement", as you called it, teachers are hired by MCPS HR and then apply to/interview for positions that they are interested in. No one is placed anywhere. The only time that happens is if someone is involuntarily transferred (ie, the school lost a position and that teacher was the last one in). Another thing to note is that until someone has tenure (three years), they may not leave their school. Often you'll see schools with largely first and second year untenured teachers on staff--that is usually a reflection on the administration as well. [/quote]
