My2Girls-Mrs.Price would never even consider leaving Sandy Hill if she had the choice. I feel bad knowing your child thinks that is why Mrs.Price is leaving, that is not the case. I am sorry for being nosey and this is just a sugestion so please don't take this the wrong way.Try explaining it this way, there are people who rank above Mrs.Price and they said that she has to go to Warwick,Mrs.Price has made Sandy Hill into the best school around and now she needs to go fix Warwick,tell her that Mrs.Price had no choice in the matter because if she did she would not be leaving,tell her that Mrs.Price now needs her to make her proud.

| luv it the way it is.....people on here would not become quite as defensive if you were not so abrasive and if you wrote a little better. If you would just read over what you say first and make sure your grammar and spelling are correct I (others)would be more open to listening to your responses. I have trouble accepting your opinions because you write like an uneducated person who wants us to think you know what you're talking about! Not to mention, you attack children because they have an opinion. I'll bet my years salary that you were a very opinionated youngster!

How ignorant are those who don't think parental involvement is needed in the schools? Those parents that are uninterested in their child's education are to blame for most of the problems we have in society today! Yes, I said society not just the schools! Habits start early so if you're not involved in the foundation of there early years (School years) then chances are, you're not involved in their lives in general. Do I believe you need to spend every waking moment in your child's classroom? NO but I do believe that a vested interest in who is teaching your child, what they are learning and the environment they spend the majority of their day in should be top priority for every parent! I wholeheartedly trust our educational system as a whole but as we all know there are individual teachers, principals and decision makers who do not have my childrens best interest at heart. Unfortunately for you and I, these people are part of the fabric of every educational system across the United States and world and it sheds a dark shadow on those who truly do an outstanding job every day for every child! Perhaps if we spent as much time praising and encouraging as we have picking apart and belittling these people our entire educational system would be a much better place for everyone. I'm not sure the background of any of you on here, I've read several that have said they were in the education field but I really think that unless you have been in the trenches and walked in their shoes you need to halt the attacks on these teachers! If you could do it better, then by all means go for it!
With that being said, I personally said some things on here earlier that were not the most considerate of those I was speaking of. For that I am sorry! I do however think change is a good thing in any area of our world. Home, work, friends, etc! It gives everyone a chance to grow and show others who we truly are. Give these changes a chance to work themselves out! It may be great opportunities not only for those adults involved but the children they will touching as well!
I agree with most of what you are saying. However, if Susie Price was your childs principal and she was now being transferred to fix a problem school, how would you feel? Susie Price has built Sandy Hill to what it is today and obtained a wonderful staff in the process. I guess I don't understand why the Board would mess with a good thing instead of getting rid of the problem. I was sincerely hoping that I would see my children taught at Sandy Hill with Mrs. Price. There is a reason why the principal is being transferred from Warwick and that is because there were problems at that school. I am not saying that it was all her fault because I know it wasn't. I just don't want there problems brought to Sandy Hill. Well go down to the BOE and ask they. I am sure they have other reasons and would appriciated your input. NOT
What in the world is your problem? I have no idea what your logic was on that last response. I am only looking out for the well being of my children. Which obviously you must not have any or you would know where I am coming from.
My applogies. I certainlly understand you looking out for you child. But there are many people in our community and a couple on here that draw my ire because they think they know whats best for everything. People are trained to do their job. Let them do it. I could just see DCG telling a Dr. how to operate. I will give you a Direct Quote for a school teach here in the county. "If parents were concerned about their childs grades as much as they are about the sports, cheerleading, classplay, social status of their kids, the kids would be much better off. And so would the faculty."
Accepted. Sorry if I sounded a little bitter. My daughter is really upset about this and how do you explain it to a six year old. Her first thought is that Mrs. Price doesn't want to be there. Children like consistency and by changing both heads of administration it is really going to bother some of them. I can even understand moving one of them but both is a little much.
My understanding it is to try and get up test scores. This is how it works, it is something like a sports Manager. You can't change the players (students) so they change the Manager (Principles). The BOE has to do something or the state will take over others as they have MLMS.

Get over yourself! I wish that half the kids today had as much compassion as this kid appears to have. I give kudos for standing up for what he/she thinks is right.

Luv-I am a child.I want to be a teacher at Sand Hill Elementary that would be my dream come true.How many children know what there dream job is at my age?Not many of my friends do!My mind has been made up sense Pre-K.My mom knows that I have been posting things on this site and she encouged me to get invovled because it affects me a lot.It affects my day to day life and I care.I know there are people better qualified to make decisions about the school system but I don't care there is always a person better qualified.There is even a person better qualified then you believe it or not.My mom is invovled in my life and even if she wasn't what does it matter.I wouldn't let my grades drop or stop doing the things I need to do because I love school.I actually like getting A's on my report card and having my teachers like me.Fancy that concept.
DorCouNtyGirl- Thank you for standing up for me.I will always be stubbornly determinded have been sense the day I was born.If luv keeps picking on me it is fine because if he is mean and nasty on the computer i can only think he is that way all the time.I only care for peoples opions if they are nice and care about other peoples feelings.

Just sitting here reading all your comments makes me shake my head in disbelief and sadness! How ignorant are those who don't think parental involvement is needed in the schools? Those parents that are uninterested in their child's education are to blame for most of the problems we have in society today! Yes, I said society not just the schools! Habits start early so if you're not involved in the foundation of there early years (School years) then chances are, you're not involved in their lives in general. Do I believe you need to spend every waking moment in your child's classroom? NO but I do believe that a vested interest in who is teaching your child, what they are learning and the environment they spend the majority of their day in should be top priority for every parent! I wholeheartedly trust our educational system as a whole but as we all know there are individual teachers, principals and decision makers who do not have my childrens best interest at heart. Unfortunately for you and I, these people are part of the fabric of every educational system across the United States and world and it sheds a dark shadow on those who truly do an outstanding job every day for every child! Perhaps if we spent as much time praising and encouraging as we have picking apart and belittling these people our entire educational system would be a much better place for everyone. I'm not sure the background of any of you on here, I've read several that have said they were in the education field but I really think that unless you have been in the trenches and walked in their shoes you need to halt the attacks on these teachers! If you could do it better, then by all means go for it!
With that being said, I personally said some things on here earlier that were not the most considerate of those I was speaking of. For that I am sorry! I do however think change is a good thing in any area of our world. Home, work, friends, etc! It gives everyone a chance to grow and show others who we truly are. Give these changes a chance to work themselves out! It may be great opportunities not only for those adults involved but the children they will touching as well!

You need to get a life. People much more qualified than you have made a decision that they feel is best for our school system. I certainly hope you have ZER0 CONTACT with any of my kids.
This is a child you idiot. NOT a teacher. You are the one that needs to get a life, and stop picking on people who actually care.
Keep that detirmination up as you get older, it will really get you places Sandy Hill is the team I am on!
Your right Dorcountygirl, Sandy hill etc. is a child. But of couse Luv, wants the rest of us to think she is a great teacher maybe this is an example of why some of us parents want to go to the schools and check in on our kids and their teachers!!
Then where's the parent. A child should not be posting unsupervised.. And as I have said many times Parents are the problem with our children today. And we don't need them in our schools.
I agree parents are the problem (not all parents though), but that's all that I agree with. I feel that parents aren't involved enough with their children (again not all parents). Some parents think that as long as their child isn't bothering them then all is well. I had very active parents. I feel it's vitally important for parents to be involved in everything their child is (including school - both in and outside of the classroom).
I don't think parents have a place inside the classroom unless it is assisting with their education. When I was growing up, if your parent was in the school you were in BIG TROUBLE.
and I don't think you should even be lucky enough to have a place in a classroom. Well i will call it just dumb luck that you are not in charge!

I stayed because I love kids, but what other job do people have that they are supposed to love their job but not worry about the pay.
Being a minister of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
God bless,

| I know that the other kids deserve to have the benifit of having Mrs.Price as their principal but I can't help the way I feel.I'm truly sorry but I have to at least try.Then if it doesn't work well there is nothing I can do about it then.I need to try,I have to there are people counting on me.I mean nothing I have said to hurt anyone or to be mean or nasty.Please don't be mad.I'm a stubborn person who is not easily crushed or discouraged.

| The pension system only pays 30% of your former salary - I know that's What I'm getting. If you're getting 49%, you must be in the old system!

You are correct it is the Maryland State Retirement system but pays differently for different state employees. As a teacher I will receive about 49% of my pay when I retire after 30 years. I left Dorchester after 8 years and went to Worcester where 90% of my medical will be paid at retirement. The only difference I have from the teacher staying in Dorchester for 30 years is my health insurance. It means once I am eligble for Social Security my insurance will be paid as long as the Commissioners continue to fund it.
In pa a teacher gets 75% of their salary and full medical benifits state wide. It all depends on the state and in Maryland the County. Most on the shore pay little...could be because most of the counties on the shore are part of the Eastern Shore consortium for health insurance.

| 401's, on average have lost about 30-60% in the last 9 months. Plus, a lot of companies have discontinued their matching contributions, which was never a big anount anyway. I'll repeat myself; I respect teachers and any other people in the public service category who do an honest days work. My only point was, in the private sector, at least as of today you have no guaranteed benefits after retirement whatsoever. I'm speaking to the "average" private sector, not wall street and fortune 500 companies who are thumbing their nose at taxpayers and saying, "O.K., no big bonuses?" Well, we'll just dip down deep some other way."
