[quote=Anonymous]It's not so much about whether it's 10 or 30 teachers leaving from upper school, but whom. My DD, who graduated today, was taught by 8/10 of them. It is heartbreaking! The history dept. chair is one of the most fantastic teachers we have ever met, and taught my other child too. Same with the math teacher, english teacher, computer science teacher, etc. They are those very loved teachers who always have kids hanging out in their classrooms. They had all been around for 5-8 years already. So while you can argue this is normal, it doesn't feel so. It's normal for younger teachers gaining some experience to come and go every few years, and for some stellar faculty to retire, but these are people who are in their 30s and 40s, staying in the DC area, and who truly loved the school and the kids. I am so glad my DD was fortunate enough to be taught by them. [/quote]
