teachers need to get paid |
Do you think that $14.25 goes to teachers??? It goes to the company that processes the payment. |
It is not like many other places do not charge extra for using a credit card. |
Just take it during the school year. It is free. Its an easy class. Use it to balance harder ones. |
How much do the teachers get paid for teaching a summer course? A class of just 20 students brings in $7k in fees. Can MCPS students take Health from any entity other than MCPS? |
Um, like, it's "free" during the school year and some students HAVE to take it over the summer to fit other classes during school year. It should be free for rising seniors (class of 2025) taking it this summer as the second semester -Health B - was a requirement added when those students were entering HS. Frankly both sections of health should be free in the summer. |
I thought this had been approved. |
If I knew you, I’d buy you a drink! |
Health Ed usually has many more kids than 20, maybe 40 or more, forget how it was last year but it was a very large group, all online and most of it auto graded. Very few live sessions. |
No one has to take it over the summer, you choose to as you prefer taking classes that interest you. Agree it should be free but its not. |
It’s not free during the school year. Teachers salaries are part of the school year budget. Their contracts end at the end of the school year. |

This thread is why this county sucks, and why it is so expensive to live here. Even rich people think everything should be free. |
If you pay in person at our school we only accept cash. |
The issue here is that there’s no other option but to use a credit or debit card and incur the fee. They should not have advertised the cost as $350, because it clearly wasn’t. |
