[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am also a former DCPS teacher. I started teaching at Anacostia High School the same year that Rhee became chancellor. I was fired in the middle of my third year. I saw everything that the other former DCPS teacher described on this thread: “Teachers who sleep on the job, leave early every day, don't teach ONE. SINGLE. BIT. of the curriculum.” The thing is I was not one of those teachers. I was a teacher who should not have been fired. You may or may not believe me, but as I read these message-boards and watch the Frontline report, I am mostly just sad, because I know that I was making real progress with my students, and I was prevented from continuing. Of course teachers need to be evaluated, but Michelle Rhee failed in developing an effective system. It wasn’t just me. I personally know many outstanding educators who were forced out during Rhee’s tenure. And I know of many, many not so good teachers who remain.[/quote]

Thank you for speaking up.  [/quote]
