[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FCPS breaking the law is not the fault of special ed families. Jesus. [/quote]

Fcps literally cannot hire enough special Ed teachers. No one wants the job. Even the parents of special Ed kids don’t want the job. FCPS is not willfully breaking the law, they just don’t have a choice.  They need to change the law to no longer have to provide these services. Then parents couldn’t sue and then FCPS wouldn’t have to spend so much on lawyers. Then maybe they’d actually be able to pay better. [/quote]
+1 People have no idea how bad it really is. I work in a neighboring district. It's a nice, new, non-Title I school with good admin. 1/3 of our SPED staff is provisionally licensed, one won't be returning. They can't even get applicants let alone hire people. SPED is such a house of cards where career changers quickly get a provisional license for a job that is definitely not beginner level so they leave after a year or two and the cycle starts again. I'm really worried for the upcoming school year because there are so many places hiring that people may not look into teaching and we'll be stuck with double the workload.[/quote]

+1, I am so worried for next year. No one is applying for positions that are currently open.[/quote]
