Private & Independent Schools

I am scared by the focus on gender identity in MCPS, but we are also non-religious, so also not considering catholic or Jewish private schools - is there a place for us in MD school system?
Looking for strong academics, too. Any suggestions would help - thank you! |
| Baltimore privates an option? |
Yes |
|
Just curious, what exactly scares you?
|
| Do you seriously think that MCPS schools are focusing on gender identity to the exclusion of other topics? It's perhaps mentioned once or twice per school year. You sound paranoid. |
Just shows how well the far right fear-based propaganda is working. Very sad. |
| What is a "gender identity focused" school? My child attends probably the most liberal private school in the area and classes focus on math, reading, science, etc. Yes, trans kids are affirmed and accepted, but that's not the defining feature of his school day. |
Dp. Between that and the shooter drills, school is..not what it should be: a place to get an education. |
You're going to find shooter drills at privates, too, Pammy. |
| Are you worried that your kid is going to catch it? Or that they might find out other people have different opinions than their parents do? |
| Why are you scared? Your kid won't become trans if they are not trans just because it is mentioned at school a couple of times a year. |
| Sorry. Your crazy rhetoric about “less gender identity focused private schools” puts you squarely in Catholic and Evangelical schools. None of the top tier privates believe in the GOP talking points about indoctrination. |
Plus days off and extra cops after a credible threat. |
Not at our micro school, Jill. |
Congratulations? You're a micro-exception, then. |
