[quote=Anonymous]I am trying to compare the different staffs at the different MCPS schools at which I have worked (three over many years).  The way recruiting works, you apply to job openings that interest you.  But, at any given time, even if you hypothetically wanted a "w" school, there might only be openings at other schools.  You only can transfer during a very small window, when you have been teaching for a certain amount of time.  Ultimately, I chose to move to a school with a shorter commute. That was how I chose my school.  Others might want to teach in a needy population, or a high SES population.  Perhaps teachers would do better during an interview if the administrator thought their background matched the surrounding community, and so teachers with more advanced degrees might end up in a higher performing school.  I doubt that happens very often though. My point is that I don't think there are significant differences in teaching between schools in MCPS.  I agree with the earlier posters who say the parents' backgrounds explain differing test scores among schools.[/quote]
