[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]This is why educators are leaving the profession in droves. [/b] I'm a DCPS parent (not a Walls parent) and while I hate the disfunction of DCPS the educators at J-R where my child is are doing their absolute best given the constraints they are facing. I know for a fact they have been trying to get schedules to kids since the spring so that they could fix mistakes early and have everything finalized for as many kids as possible by mid summer but have been hamstrung by DCPS's antiquated systems. It is NOT for lack of effort or caring...I don't know what the staff burden is at Walls but the counselors at J-R each have something like 300 students to schedule and have to basically do it manually. The solution is not to blame the school or the staff but to demand that DCPS give the schools the software they need to make this a manageable task. [/quote] Bolded makes no sense. To the extent that bad technology and self inflicted wounds from Central are the cause of people leaving the profession, that's not new. Central and DCPS have been incompetent for years. [/quote] Yes. And in fact teachers seem to be pouring into DCPS from charters at the moment, at least to the better DCPS schools. [/quote]
