[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why would anyone do that? Do you have any clue about FCPS compensation, OP? FCPS teachers FLOCK to surrounding counties to get OUT of this bureaucratic nightmare and non-competitive pay scale wasteland that is FCPS.[/quote] The board just approved the FY19 budget on Thursday. I’m getting a $5K bump in my salary for next year. That and not having to deal with the dysfunction of ACPS makes me want to stay in FCPS.[/quote] If a 5k pay raise is that exciting you should checkout APS, also I think they also do some of your pension contribution for you APS students get iPads in 2nd grade so you really don't have to teach anything at all.[/quote] Did the switch. The pay raise has been great! On the other hand, dealing with the behavior an transience at my APS school has been a huge stressor. The regular changes in vision for how we're supposed to teach and assess are even more erratic than in FCPS. However, with any county, a lot depends on the principal and the school population.
