[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When? The only teacher that left this year was the kindergarten assistant teacher. There is no MASS exodus. Yes teachers have left but not in the masses. Their program and curriculum does not skip a beat.[/quote]

The drama teacher left this year too.  Last year the lower school division director, the CEO,  director of technology, director of operations, director of communications, director of diversity, school nurse,  upper school spanish, lower school spanish, upper school art teacher, lower school art teacher, reading specialist, several teachers (2nd, 3rd, 4th, 6th, 1st) and I don't know how many assistant teachers.  And I am sure I am forgetting people.  It is not a big school.  It was a large percentage of their staff.  [/quote]

It is COVID era and the school leadership has been stable, so I wouldn't read too much into the higher-than-usual turnover. 
For example, I know one teacher who left in 2020/21 made the decision solely based on COVID situation -- the resumption of in-person learning prompted the retirement decision. I think it is nobody's fault and it is not unique to NPS. [/quote]

Only 2 or 3 retired, the rest took jobs in local independent schools.  They weren't trying to get away from teaching.

And how has school leadership been stable?  look at that list, how many have director in front of their name?[/quote]
