Attachment I xecutive Summary
xecutive Summary Baltimore County Public Schools Trends in Human Resources The Department of Human Resources of the Baltimore County Public Schools supports the mission of the school district to provide a quality education that develops the content knowledge, skills, and attitudes that will enable all students to reach their maximum potential as life-long learners and productive citizens by recruiting, retaining and rewarding a highly skilled workforce. A review of the trends in the Department of Human Resources over the past several years illustrates the strong commitment to provide the framework for a quality workforce that can accomplish and strive to fulfill that mission. Trends in teacher hiring, resignations, retirements, and leaves were reviewed. A summary of the findings follows: Since 2004-2005 fewer teachers are resigning with a significant decrease in resignations since 2007-2008. Retirements and leaves were not significantly different in all years reviewed with the exception of the current year. ven though there is a national shortage of math, science, and special education teachers, vacancies of any kind were few at the start of the last four school years. The No Child Left Behind Act and the Blueprint for Progress requires that all students be taught by highly qualified teachers in the core academic subjects. Trends in reaching this goal are shown via tables and charts. In 2003-2004, 83.5% of teachers were highly qualified in the core academic subjects; in 2008-2009, 96.9% of teachers were highly qualified in the core academic subjects. nclosed progress maps reveal that since 2004 tremendous progress in hiring highly qualified teachers has occurred; in fact, at the 104 elementary schools in Baltimore County only 12 out of the over 2600 teachers have not reached the highly qualified standard. A total of 94% of secondary teachers are highly qualified. Another trend relates to highly qualified teachers in high and low poverty schools. A component of the Highly Qualified Teacher (HQT) plan focuses on the issue of equity, that students in high poverty schools are taught by the same percentage of HQT compared to low poverty schools. Baltimore County leads the way among large school systems in Maryland with HQTs at higher percentages in high poverty elementary schools than low poverty elementary schools and almost meeting that target at high poverty secondary schools. These trends in hiring highly qualified teachers can be seen in tables that reveal a growth in the percentage of HQT in middle school math classes from 2002-2003 (31.7%) to 2007-2008 (97.4%) and an increase in the percentage of core academic classes taught by highly qualified teachers from 62.5% in 2002-2003 to 88.8% in 2007-2008. Another trend over the past five years is to provide the support personnel necessary for the school district to support the schools. The Office of Personnel has provided that support via the following: 2
The percentage of highly qualified paraeducators in Title I schools from 71% in 2003-2004 to 100% in 2008-2009. Opening school each year with 50-65 vacancies a year or less than 1% vacancies. (Maintenance, secretarial, garage, security) In the area of Personnel Services, a variety of services to over 17,000 employees and 5,000 temporary or substitute employees is provided. A review of trends in qual mployment concerns has been enclosed. Also included are future trends that the Baltimore County Public Schools may have to address that include Health Insurance, Personal Portability Act (HIPPA), Conciliation Omnibus Reconciliation Act (COBRA), and the Mental Health Parity Act, Base Realignment and Closure, rise in healthcare costs, the American Disabilities Act, and technology issues in Human Resources. The Department of Human Resources stands ready to continue to provide the excellent service to the schools and associated offices of the Baltimore County Public Schools. 3
