[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Looks like a 6% raise but staffing cuts[/quote]

and increase in classroom sizes

decrease in planning time

increase in other areas of responsibility

basically, if you are saved to work, you will be reid's minions

And they can easily fund the proposed cuts by eliminating the 5% raise for central office staff.

The cuts proposed are almost all instructional based. Reid literally created positions that we did not have previously.  What I would like to see is a list of Gatehouse people, their salaries, their jobs, and who is getting a 5 percent raise. Why do all of these higher up people already making over 200,000 need a 5 percent raise? They are not in the trenches day to day. As a parent, we should be pushing the school board to truly make more cuts to Gatehouse. [/quote]

There’s some information in answers to C20 and C91 here:

Reid has doubled the number of chiefs in FCPS since she got here. I believe they all make 250,00 or more. They also each have staff that just does admin for them, not substantive stuff. She has also added many “senior manager” positions. The school board doubled their staff just a couple of months ago. The IT department is huge because they keep trying to put out kids on screens for everything. None of these people deserve 5% raises when the rest of the area is getting laid off or no raises. The only good news is she has asked central office departments to cut 3% of their spending but she said that might be contracts, not employees. FCPS also gives all their employees a second pension that other districts don’t give but they never mention that when to they cry poverty.[/quote]
