[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To 9:26 - I get your point. But my point was that existing staff will not be laid off (as suggested by PPs who think mcps is bloated). It's too much trouble to lay off staff since many can file lawsuits --- and lawsuits are expensive. So existing staff will not be let go. If there's a hiring freeze and numbers shift, then existing staff might end up being offered positions at other schools (and former teachers with fancier titles might be sent back to classrooms).

Make sense?

If you've been around mcps for the last two decades, this would all sound familiar.

Oh, and raises could be affected (obviously). [/quote]

I've been in the system for over 20 years - in central office and at the school level with "fancier titles" and have never experienced these changes of which you apparently know.

Most of my years in the system have been in the classroom (in highly impacted high schools).  I CHOSE to return to the classroom for many reasons.  This is not the case in MCPS.  Once you're out of the classroom setting, you don't automatically shift back in.  You're often reabsorbed by other departments or shifted into other non-teaching roles.

Unless you've been in the system, I don't think you're the expert.
