Bummer

FCPS really has a target on WSHS.  They keep pillaging their staff
[/quote]

The staff applied for the positions. [/quote]
Exactly. The PP should be asking themselves why everyone wants to leave WSHS, not blaming FCPS for giving them other opportunities.[/quote]

Why would you say everyone wants to leave WSHS? I can see wanting to leave Madison, but not WS. Maybe the positions are closer to the new administrators’ homes, and you get promoted to principal or above within FCPS by working in different environments. [/quote]

There is not a target on WSHS staff, the staff their keep applying for jobs to leave WSHS, therefor FCPS isn't going in and removing people unwillingly from WSHS. People are applying for jobs elsewhere.

However, it certainly doesn't mean people are wanting to leave. If they're leaving for better opportunities that's incredibly logical and wise for their careers. If they're leaving for later or even lower jobs elsewhere (outside of a better commute, work/life balance etc) then you'd wonder if WSHS has issues.[/quote]

WSHS lost people to TJ when Mukai moved over. That’s not surprising and is not a reflection on the school. Being a charter staff member at a new school is an exciting opportunity for many people. It may pay the same, but you get to build the ship from the ground up, which excites a lot of career educators. [/quote]

I think that the people who are so focused on the process, which has been crap, are missing out that there are reasons that people are excited. It is a new school with new opportunities and a chance to shape the future. That is scary but exciting at the same time. For veteran teachers, this is an opportunity to help frame the curriculum and the shape of their new departments.

You can be excited by the opportunity and dislike the process. [/quote][/quote]
