[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Read my lips. No new teachers. Trust me on that one.

So we happen to have a bunch of NIH post docs already at MCPS to create four new programs along the lines of Blair SMCS? Because if the teachers are not all at the same high level, then the proposed plan will not equitably executed. There’s a difference between teachers at MIT and teachers at the local community college.[/quote]

You could get an elementary teacher who decided to go to high school. You just never know. Often they force teachers to learn new subjects that are out of their depth.  How do I know? Happened to me! Took me a couple of years to get out of that pigeonhole (I was forced to teach coding and robotics AND source my own robots because the school’s were too old. HATED it). You can teach out of your curriculum area for  one year. They take advantage of that.  [/quote]

I thought it was 3 years in a row you could teach outside of your content area. That’s how my old school staffed their engineering electives. We had an elementary media specialist teaching the MS engineering 
Electives. She followed another teacher who taught the classes outside of his content area for 3 years as well
