[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Time to lower the hiring standards. Private schools have some great teachers who fcps could use if they did away with some of the education requirements. There are some fine teachers from other countries and other fine individuals who may hold a degree in something else. Maybe they could hire some with associate degrees and just lengthen the probation period. I have met some highly educated teachers who are not very good at their jobs at all. There are plenty of people who would work. Fcps needs to change hiring practices. [/quote] This is a state licensing issue, not FCPS[/quote] It’s federal. Schools get federal funds and part of that is that they ensure they have highly qualified teachers. DC didn’t a few years ago, and they lost a ton of funding and had to get rid of a ton of teachers who were unlicensed. [/quote]
