[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hearst has so much faculty turn over. It would make me nervous to have my kid there. Teachers leave left and right with little to no warning. Take for example, the 2nd grade teacher who just up and quit a few weeks ago and gave no notice. [/quote] Troll. One teacher left with little warning. One. Beyond that I don't think that teacher turnover is much higher than at other DCPS institutions, and is much lower than at many charters that rely primarily on younger staff, many from TFA. Quite frankly, teaching is a very hard job, DC is a transient city with high costs, and hiring good people means that they will move on to more attractive opportunities. And the Hearst community also has quite a number of strong, long-serving teachers who we simply love and who provide continuity and mentoring to new staff.[/quote]
