[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You don't understand (product of the VA school system?) They don't have a choice if they are being IMPACTed out within their first and second year.  :roll: [quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And the VA teachers that I have have seen transfer to DCPS can't hack it. One transferred to a JKML for year then packed up and moved back to VA. Another got a low IMPACT score and likely went back to VA with her tail between her legs, and another is just clueless and expects her colleagues to do her work for her. There you go...at least 3 and there are more. [/quote]

I think it's been determined that few people can hack the violence, dysfunction and straight out scamming that takes place in DC schools. And the turnover rate--which begins in Sept and continues through the spring--indicates that TONS of teachers from ALL OVER end up leaving. What's telling is that they return to VA, clearly because it's a much better system to work in. I don't disagree that teachers go into DCPS from VA schools. I simply argue that it's not because they are soooooo attracted by the bonus. If that was the case, they'd stick it out and play the game to get the $. Most would rather teach, are used to teaching and prefer that over nonsense. [/quote][/quote]

I do get that they were Impacted out. But most people know that doesn't mean they're bad teachers. You have to be good to teach in VA. They don't need to manipulate eval data over there to get rid of someone they don't like. But they WILL get rid of the person by documenting their screw ups. And I'm sure they're thrilled to be back in Va.[/quote]
