I would consider it a major win if more people like you would quit.
If your entire personality is built around disparaging people while simultaneously demanding their presence… (with the endless.. god, so boring.. op-eds, the gleefulness about being “right”…) soo.. you’re happy children suffered so you could be right… these parents were the and remain the absolute worst and do not care about education. Anyone with a functioning brain can see that. So you’re right… kudos to them for driving out teachers. They did such an amazing job.
With writing like that I sure hope you’re never around students.
What good are teachers that aren't willing to do their jobs? If MCEA keeps up with its behavior, MCPS will contract out more and more positions. In the short run that could be more expensive, but the district will be better off in the long run.

DP and you just proved their point. Oh well, you’re getting exactly what you deserve.

Yes,so you've all said, loudly and repeatedly. Hope your kids enjoy their revolving door of unqualified babysitters -- oops, I mean "subs."

It is also insulting to current SpEd teachers who are not ellgible for a bonus and are getting totally dumped on regarding working conditions.
Also insulting to the list of teachers who will not be allowed to transfer because they are too valuable in the position they currently have, but they also will not get a bonus.
Now this from MCEA. Contractors teaching special Ed? I don’t even understand who that would be …..

Contractors wouldn’t be limited by the CBA with MCEA. The union is shooting themselves in the foot here, since fighting this is going to push the district to outsource more and more positions.

I count 12 new pk-5 homeroom teacher vacancies listed as of JUST today 8/19. Including a CES teacher and several teachers from Bethesda/Potomac.
Also, they are reposting/crossposting the vacant classroom positions as long term sub positions.
There is a lot of 3 dimensional chess being played. Now they are talking about outside contractors. Where do the outside contracted teachers come from and who is behind the $$?

As a sped para, I'm not looking forward to that!
(Though I do have faith in the admin of my school getting staffed up.)
Do schools on average have over 100 teachers? That does not sound right

Also, related.. imagine believing anything McKnight says… “98% staffed” sure. Live in your imaginary world. This year is going to be a disaster.
