[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To those who are claiming it's a 2% raise - you're being disengenuous.

From the Post:  
"It would give most of the county’s 12,000 teachers not one but two raises — the first in July, the other next May — with the distinct possibility of a third increase (sure to be demanded by the union) later next year. Together, the first two raises would boost the average teacher’s salary to around $80,000, up from $74,700 today. . . .  But a two-step increase averaging nearly 7 percent for about three-quarters of the county’s teachers is neither good policy nor affordable."

Now, if you think that's incorrect, please let me know.  But if it's accurate, please don't try to obfuscate.

Paying teachers more would make sense if MCPS was a good school system It ain't ... not anymore.  Parents are part of the problem because

1. They vote in this BOE
2. Elect the MCCPTA that votes on the secret budget
3. Produce children and the let them lose in the care of a nanny
4.  Keep those PTA types pandering to the school system by testifying for more taxes

Stop complaining and start making a public protest that you've had enough.  Otherwise shut up and pay up.
