[quote=Anonymous]I told my students both times I switched schools. They were upset, but when I reminded them that they were moving on too (I also teach 8th grade, so they're going to high school), it wasn't as big of a deal. It came up pretty naturally. The kids asked what I was teaching next year, and I said I was going to xyz school and wasn't sure what it would be. "Why are you leaving?" "Because I want a better commute/because I had a baby and need something closer to home/because whatever reason you want to say". It's never been a big deal with admin, and parents have never shown concern. I am a well liked, effective teacher, so it's not like they were happy to be rid of me (at least, I don't think so!) Teacher transfer is pretty natural/common, especially at low income schools.[/quote]
