[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FCPS tried a merit pay a few years ago. It involved lots of paperwork by the teacher and, from what I could tell, had nothing to do with who were the best teachers. In fact, DS had one of the teachers who had done this, and I thought she was average --at best. She was very afraid of the principal. Long story: DS was inappropriately placed--the teacher told me this, but she was afraid to tell the principal and have him moved. I did not push as I probably should have. Nice gal--and nice to the kids, but couldn't stand up for what was right. [/quote] A few years ago? It must have been at least 25 years ago. I don't want it, but we haven't had it since I've been with FCPS.[/quote] Fairfax County Schools tried a merit pay system back in the 1980s, so yes it has been a while.[/quote]
