This was sent to mcea staff. It’s legit.
MCEA doesnt represent principals so why would they get it?
Because they have to approve all the decisions in MCPS.
That’s not true… they don’t approve of this by any means, sooo….

Why? It's just a ploy to get us to agree to further property tax increases so MCPS can keep throwing cash at every crazy study or bocce set their hearts desire.
It’s obviously not. Yes, I get that was what people initially thought but that is clearly not the case. They are going through with this disastrous plan.

So they are actually doing this?
Wow.
Good luck to everyone next year. I resigned last week. There's no way next year is going to well for anyone. Let's vote these people out in November.

Thanks for posting, OP.
Anyone who thinks there’s any derailing that can happen at the June 11 BOE meeting is fooling themselves. The wheels are in motion.

Good Evening, Principals,
To ensure we are providing you with the necessary information needed to navigate the
current budgetary conditions, we wanted to connect with you before the weekend. On
Monday, June 3, you will receive an updated School Allocation Execution (SAE) report that
reflects reductions based on the comprehensive (K – 12) class size increase of one
student. Out of respect, we do not want the SAE report to be the main means of
communication. Therefore, all directors and associates will be personally contacting each
school that has been identified for a staffing reduction or reassignment to discuss its
implications as well as support with the identification of staff members that will be
involuntarily transferred. In addition, all staffing coordinators will be readily available to
support you with this process as well.
Specific information will be communicated via memo, however we wanted to take this
opportunity to highlight several key points that relate to the identification of schools that
will receive a staffing reduction and the timeline that will need to be implemented;
• Only classroom teachers are impacted by staffing reassignments (not
counselors, school psychologists, pupil personnel workers, etc.)
• Actual enrollment not projected enrollment numbers in synergy are
being utilized along with historical enrollment trends to identify schools that
will receive a reduction,
• For elementary schools, these reductions could impacted art, music,
and physical education allocations as well as reading initiative allocations,
• For middle and high schools, you are encouraged to absorb the .4
staff development teacher reduction at your school. Directors will be
prepared to support with reviewing master schedules to identify classes or
other conversions to restore their allocation to 1.0
• All principals will report the staff member that they have identified to
the Office of Human Resources and Development (OHRD) for involuntary
transfer by Wednesday, June 5, at 12:00 p.m.,
• On Thursday, June 6, OHRD staffing coordinators will confirm that the
staff member you identified for involuntary transfer is accurate based on
position and seniority,
• On Friday, June 7, OHRD will be present at office hours to share
additional information regarding the involuntary placement process and
answer any questions that you have.
We recognize that this process will be difficult for your staff and difficult for you to
communicate. Staffing changes like this can be unsettling as the positive relationships we
build are what make schools special. Unfortunately, the budgetary restraints make these staffing changes unavoidable. Please know that we are committed to working closely with
you and your staff to support you with these transitions. We deeply respect your
leadership and commitment to doing the difficult and necessary work on behalf of your
school communities.
Please reach out with any questions or concerns. Thank you for all you do.
