[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do you know they do not cost more? Are you one of those teachers?

[b]In order for a teacher to specialize in a subject, he/she needs additional training and education, specialization. These usually come in the form of Master's Degrees, and they do cost money. After a teacher achieves this specialization, s/he demands a higher salary, and rightfully so, because now s/he is more specialized, and can demand higher pay.[/b]

Nothing is for free, and don't try to pretend that Haycock is some utopia, where teachers do things only out of their good heart. If so, they'd work for free.

This is a pretty big assumption. It may be the case, [b]but it also may be that out of the 8 6th grade teachers, two are better or have more of a passion about math, two are better or have more of a passion about science, etc. The one who really likes math may hate grammar. [/b]It's just playing on their talents and interests, and I don't think there's a requirement for a masters or formal specialization. [/quote]

It also could be as you say, but then if you have your two math teaches, and one of the science ones leaves, now you have to replace her with another science teacher, and not any other teacher, thus reducing equal employment opportunities, with inconsistent practices throughout the county.

Then Haycock becomes like a monopoly. [/quote]

Ugh. You don’t know what you are talking about so just stop. When my daughter was in 4 th grade at Haycock, she had one teacher that specialized in social studies. That same teacher, three years later, is my son’s Math teacher. She agreed with the 4th grade team at the beginning of the year how they were going to split teaching duties. [/quote]
