[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would like to see the total compensation of non-school based staff. I know chiefs make well upwards of $200K and there are a lot of employees at willow oaks and gatehouse. I don’t care that they are a smaller number than school-based, we still pay them and most do very little to help teachers and students.

This and the teacher shortage is getting worse each year.[/quote]

FCPS hiring a few chiefs has literally nothing to do with a teacher shortage. Their salaries are drops in the large bucket of the FCPS budget. Teachers who are upset about their salaries need to go after the real issue! a lack of funding from the state and county.

Or, start getting rid of wasteful programming that the community demands but is unnecessary:

1) AAP centers
2) AAP center transportation
3) the entire DEI department 
4) the Get2Green staff

Why did Reid add so many chiefs? And she didn’t get rid of those underneath the new chiefs. And she added new positions like “special projects manager” for some (all?) of the chiefs. One of the people mentioned upthread who was arrested seems to be in one of these positions. All of this demonstrates a lack of attention to the needs at the school level. Sending those central office people back to the schools won’t solve the teacher shortage but it would help morale by showing teachers that Reid gets it and it would cut down on the extra BS that all the central office staff concoct for teachers to do.[/quote]

Sorry, but no. As a teacher I could care less if she has a few chiefs. What I care about is my salary keeping pace with the cost of living. Dr. Reid sending an email saying “I have redeployed 7 individuals from Gatehouse to schools” does LITERALLY NOTHING for me, nor do 7 positions do much for schools. [/quote]
