[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Seems to me that, although these schools are highly regarded, their teachers typically only have two years experience and this is typically the case at charter schools.  Apparently positive educational outcomes are directly linked to teachers with more experience.  http://www.scholarsstrategynetwork.org/sites/default/files/ssn_basic_facts_ladd_on_the_importance_of_experienced_teacgers_1.pdf

So wouldn't it make sense to favor a mid range to good DCPS  over charter with teachers with little experience? So Shepherd Park [b]or a Hearst over MV or CM[/b]?  I would love to know what others think.[/quote]

OP here, the fact that the Hearst principal is resigning reminds me of one thing the HRC seem to have over DCPS:  vested principals/Exec Dir/Admin and low turnover in this regard.  At DCPS seems like every 4 years you can expect a new principal. See Hearst and Oyster, for example.  The age of having the same principal in a school for 20+ years are long gone.[/quote]
