If you talk about having a good experience, someone will accuse you of being a school district employee. If you point out any positives in a tough situation, same. You get accused of being a teacher or school personnel.

MCPS families know that the school system hired a PR firm and MCPS posts on this board. These past 3 school years have been the worst for special needs students who are still struggling to recover from online learning. The MCPS reputation of spin to deflect from problems makes parents distrust positive posts because it just doesn’t match up with the reality students are experiencing.

Even if true, it doesn't mean every post supporting mcps is from a pr hack.

No one said every post is a pr hack. MCPS parents have cause for being skeptical, not just for the pr people hired to post but also at the uptick in deceptive practices at IEP meetings and Resolution and Compliance.

You mean like sending a licensed attorney to an IEP meeting without prior notice person is an attorney and their identity within MCPS? Yes, deception is the MCPS way of operating vs. working with families to support students with special needs.

Exhibit A... Sounds like a teacher or school rep... Readers beware...

Yes, beware everyone being called a PR hack.
