[quote=Anonymous]I'm surprised that no one has pointed how private schools attract high quality teachers but pay less than public schools. Teachers are burnt out, and leaving MCPS not because of raises but because of poor working conditions. They have little control over the curriculum, poor performing employees are not let go, they lack basic resources to do their job well, and they are bombarded by useless assessments and data collection that only serve to justify the existence of the school and county administrators. New teachers go into MCPS not because they think its a good place to be but because the salary is higher than privates but they burn out quickly. An additional raise is not going to overcome the poor working conditions for teachers in public schools.[/quote]
