[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DCPS middle schooler has had weeks without a math teacher - first in 6th and now again in 8th. Can someone explain why this happens? Does it happen in private school?[/quote] Former DC private school teacher here. No it does not, because as teachers we are expected to sub for each other's classes. So it's a completely different pool (current faculty vs DCPS subs). We did have free periods so maybe more flexibility to do this. Also, I taught for 5 years and no one ever quit mid year. The one time a teacher left was because they committed a crime and then were fired. Leaving mid year is verboten because you know you are screwing over students and your fellow faculty.[/quote]
