[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It also happened at Burnt Mills ES years ago, when the entire Spanish Immersion group left not once but twice. The former principal also got rid of excellent teachers (music, media) by telling them  that their allocations had gone down, put them on involuntary transfer, had them go elsewhere and then get the allocations up just prior to the start of the new school to fill the position with people of her choice, mostly new to MCPS.

Okay, but the change in allocation happens frequently.  They probably did go down and putting them on involuntary transfer gave them the best options for finding new jobs.  Allocations are re-evaluated before the new year starts.  We lost a K class, and the teacher changed schools.  Now, two months later, we've been re-allocated an additional K class because of late enrollments.  That K teacher is long gone, so the only available teachers are those new to MCPS.  The principal in that case sounds like she did nothing other than standard procedure.  She didn't know the allocations would go back up.[/quote]
