[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They should look at what happened at Mundo when Mundo unionized- -All the teachers left right after unionization- their pay is LOWER than other charters, and they have had nothing but instability and turnover since unionizing. NO THANK YOU[/quote]
Where is the pay info?[/quote]

Don’t believe people on DCUM who obviously have no kids at the school.  Teachers at Mundo did not leave and supported the union and stayed.  They have gotten significant raises, more prep time, PD support, classroom support.  Turnover has been very low since the formed the union.

It’s good DCI teachers have formed a union.  It will give them collectively more negotiating power at the table.

Posters like above don’t know crap.[/quote]

They got more pay after the non- unionized teachers at other charters fought for charter teacher pay down at council. Before that unionized Mundo Verde teachers were at the bottom of charter teacher pay. Look it up.[/quote]

Parent of a former MV student here... my son's teachers at the Cook campus were a revolving door from PK to 5th grade- union or no union - the retention rate of 50% the poster mentions was felt my son and our family. He's not experienced this turnover at DCI this year as a 6th grader- but I can speak from experience when I say that the MV Cook Campus was unstable in many ways - from leadership to teachers. I only seriously hope that this does not mean that DCI will experience and exodus of leaders - we've found the MS principal and AP to be respectful, responsive and cheerleaders for kids. [/quote]
