[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I care about my score, I'm 25 and just had a baby. My husband makes great money but this year I get the FIVE pay skips and 10k bonus.

I get highly effective every year and it helps me and my family. I also do go above and beyond, many teachers think that's 'not right' but what job rewards you just for being average?

Also I'm sorry not all teachers deserve HE, we are not all highly effective some of us are simply effective.
If you have corrupt admin, you need to record your lesson as soon as they walk in. Yes, it will disrupt the flow a little at the beginning but they already did that by walking in.

Like someone else said it is a game, if you don't like it teach in VA or MD. It's interesting how many teachers whine about impact but don't leave. FYI charters in DC have no impact and those teachers leave at a higher rate.

It's DCPS' lack of support for teachers and their practice that does it for me. The lack of modernization and resources for all schools.

PS. IDGAF about tenure, it has cons too. Yes we can change Impact but it's not fair to get rid of it cause admit it, some of you all are just salty.

OP there's no such thing as a school system that is excellent for teachers. If you feel undervalued find a better school.[/quote]

Hi 25 year old know it all teacher.  Admin changes ALL THE TIME especially at schools where you get the 10k bonus.  So maybe pipe down a bit and realize how young and inexperienced you are in DCPS. [/quote]

You sound old and mad. It’s been six years for me and I’m good.
You’re also working under the assumption I’d cry if I didn’t make highly effective. Now that I make over 100k I do not care, I got mine. Yes, 10k extra a year is helpful but I won’t die. I can live with effective now.

Also you’re under the assumption impact is subjective, looks like you don’t know how to advocate for yourself. Or play the game, it has a simple rubric. I stand by what I said, if your admin is corrupt record. You think I pulled that from my a**? I have successfully won a chancellor’s appeal, because just like I can advocate for my students I can do so for myself. Thanks.[/quote]
