[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just had to respond to this:
'The new school will start off with an inexperienced staff".

I am an MCPS teacher who is interested in maybe teaching at B-CC MS #2 (Can't wait until it actually gets a name, btw) and have 11 years of teaching experience.  I live in Chevy Chase DC and am intrigued by the idea of:
a) the excitement of helping to start a school from the beginning and
b) a shorter commute to work from my home

I actually think many experienced educators will apply to teach at the new middle school, especially if they choose a good principal!

I'm staying out of the boundary argument, but just wanted to chime in that I do not think the staff itself will be 'inexperienced' as compared to Westland.

+1.  Westland will have far fewer students than it currently does.  It will no longer have the student numbers to support its current teacher numbers.  Some Westland teachers will have to leave Westland.  It makes sense that they would be given priority to teach at the new school.  Same for teachers ar CCES and NCC, who will no longer be anle tk teach 6th grade there because there will no longer be a 6th grade.

Not only should the new school open with at least some experienced teachers, there should be some teachers who already teach MS classes in the cluster and know the community. [/quote]

Member of the boundary committee here, we were told new schools get first pick of teachers from the entire county, so the school will have fabulous teachers.

First pick of the ones in the pool, FYI the pool is not filled with the best teachers.  [/quote]
