[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They technically do - they run out the good teachers with poor administration and not treating them well and keep the crappy ones.[/quote]
So very true.
Why are those 70 something year olds still playing their dirty games in the office of  teacher recruitment?

So many talented teachers apply to MCPS who never receive any call back for an interview, while classrooms get assigned people with 'emergency certifiations", peope with minimal or no experience in teaching.

Sounds like corruption. Can’t the state investigate? [/quote]

MCPS, b/c of its pay and benefits, does indeed attract an educated crew.  However, the number of applicants applying can be overwhelming, too.  HR is a mess.  It has always been a mess no matter who was in charge.  One of my friend's former student teacher, who was hired, is going nuts trying to secure a job.  She interviews and doesn't hear back.  Many administrators are not trustworthy, and they have no sense of professionalism.

But MCPS can get away with its treatment of staff.  why?  The system is so big that it cranks through teachers b/c guess what?  There are tons of applicants willing to fill spots. On the outside, MCPS looks shiny and golden.  However, those of us who have been insiders know the truth.  It's a big machine.

The smart new teachers get the hell out - as they should.  Once you invest too many years in the system, you will never find a job to match your salary, benefits and retirement.
