Long time reader new poster. I have been reading the blue board off and on since '06? and this board since it started. My neighbor got me started. Again though, I have been off and on as I was working then. Now that I am no longer working I wanted to post and signed up today. I decided to join the green board because of my possible future ties to MV. We live in the MV area now but may relocate closer to Fox Valley in May when our lease is up. We could then rent from my former boss. This would put us at WV when our kids are old enough. They are at Prairie Children's now, so we have a lot of time but this would be a rent to buy and i don't want to buy in the wrong area. My question for the board is that I heard from my neighbor that the new Principal for MV is fantastic and he is busy "recruiting" all the award winning teachers out of WV. She said they are all going to move with him when MV opens. She said we should not move because all the good teachers that have won awards will be going to MV. She said that this is already in the works and that's why they named him Principal so far ahead of time. She said that WV won't have bad teachers, it's just that WV won't have any of the good award winning teachers. Could this be true? I would like to move closer to the mall from here but if WV is left with the dregs for teachers, maybe we should stay put. This board always seems to find out the best information. Let me know when you can. Do you really think that the district would allow MV to be seeded with all the award winning teachers from WV? All of my friends tell me that MV will be seeded with a mix of teachers of different levels from both schools.

Welcome Kansas!
It is my understanding that MVHS will be staffed with a mix from both schools, and new teachers from other schools in the area too. As they all will be working in 204, I am pretty sure that the Admin would not let 1 school have all the talent.

It is very interesting to read the responses to Kansas' question. It has been cut and pasted somewhere else with an entirely different reaction from the responders. It only makes sense to take SOME of the experienced teachers. What sense does it make to take all? Welcome, Kansas! Thanks to all who answered. It does make sense that they won't take all the award winning teachers. I know I can't take everything my neighbor says as fact, but this evening while the kids were out front playing on their scooters I asked again. She said that the new MV principal doesn't even have to recruit. The teachers are coming up to him to ask to go to MV. I would rather believe what Kathy B said at the Hill PTA meeting that somewhat posted here. It doesn't make sense that they would let all the good teachers go. I do want to ask Sushi where else responses were posted. Could you put in a link? I appreciate all the responses here but am intrigued by what sushi said that there are other opinions. Thanks again.

Having been around when NVHS opened, as was Sushi, I know they do not take ALL the teachers from any one school. They will probably take some from both NVHS and WVHS and combine them with new teachers.
