[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is a great supply of new teachers.  You are going bonkers, Op. [/quote] LOL - clearly you are not in education[/quote]

a great supply of new teachers, huh?

ok let's break this down. even if we have enough new teachers to cover all the positions, you don't think it's a problem to lose so many experienced ones? [/quote]

Nope they just want babysitters. [/quote]

+1. I teach in a somewhat desirable school (staff are happy with the admin, far less so with Gatehouse) and sit on a lot of interview panels. We are receiving far fewer applicants per position than we were just 3 or 4 years ago and the new teachers we are hiring are on the whole not as strong as the teachers we hired previously. The SpEd teachers we are hiring are all totally unqualified and dead weight, but they are the only applicants.

My own children are in early elementary and I am concerned about the education they will receive in a few years when many of the career teachers retire. [/quote]
