[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Here is my issue. Someone on another blog published the salaries of FCPS teachers and I was flabbergasted to find out some of my kids' best teachers made a lot less than some of their worst teachers. This wasn't always about longevity either. There was a new teacher with masters plus making more than a seasoned outstanding teacher who just had her BA. Almost every other profession finds a way to compensate people based on outstanding performance. Who not teaching? As I have said before, you take a multi-modal approach so it isn't just test scores or parent reports deciding. It's parent, colleague, student and principal evaluations, test scores (as a small part), student progress (as a bigger chunk), and various other factors all coming together. You still have pay go up each year, but the outstanding teachers get a higher percentage increase or at least a bonus.[/quote] THe cause of this problem is teacher unions.[/quote]
