[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi all, I'm a parent closely involved with MV. I haven't read many of the comments here because there are 17 pages, but I'm sure there are many good points raised. I just want to say that although the school is clearly having problems, I've seen MV at its best and it's a wonderful place. That is the reason so many caregivers aren't just giving up, but fighting for the school they think and know it can be. We have an incredible community and I'm optimistic that our hard work will pay off.[/quote]

I was closely involved with MV when they made the decision to open a second campus. Parents pushed back then and the administration and PCSB ignored us. We warmed they couldn't retain and attract teachers and would have serious staffing problems, and it seems like we have been proven correct. I hope you are right but honestly I haven't seen any signs that parents' hard work will pay off. Everyone I know who stayed through fifth grade to get DCI for their oldest kid has found another school for their younger kid. No one was happy with MV when they left.[/quote]

Is the staffing problem due to MV management, or is part of this the different labor market dynamics for Spanish-speaking teachers?[/quote]
