[quote=Anonymous]Fifth year BASIS parent. That has happened to my older DC twice - lost 2 teachers his first year, both needed to go IMO. Lost 1 since then. BASIS teachers are at-will employees - they aren't under contract as they would be at DCPS or maybe other charters. The downside of that arrangement is that they can quit without penalty and the plus side is that an ineffective teacher can be fired quickly. I put teachers changing positions in a different category than leaving the school. While both are potentially disruptive for the students, the transfers are usually handled pretty well. The transfers are usually handled well - and when someone quits or fired it takes about 2-3 weeks to replace them. Talk to the HOS about your concerns and if you are still unhappy contact his boss in Arizona, Carolyn McGarvey. Both are pretty responsive. [/quote]
