[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Didn't FCPS just say that now they have the lowest vacancy rate since during the school closures for Covid (no one was quitting that sweet gig).[/quote]

Yes, Reid has said they have their lowest vacancy rate. They also didn’t do anything to cut costs or target raises to high vacancy spots (I am guessing special ed teachers are still in that category). Instead they proposed a huge across the board raise for all their employees. I have no idea what the union was thinking when they bargained for that. Such a lost opportunity. I’m pretty sure the vast majority of residents would support good raises based on need as shown by vacancies, or at least for just teachers and other direct student-facing roles. Instead, central office employees who either make huge salaries or do purely administrative work would get the same raises as teachers! And the county told them the amount of money that was available and the school board still put forth a budget that blew that amount out of the water. Makes no sense.[/quote]

Perhaps they will think more strategically in the future and realize that people are more willing to support raises for teachers in the classroom than Gatehouse staff.  [/quote]
