That's funny but I hope you didn't actually do that.

Oh I did. And this is about the 30th time I've filled it out. I'm a different demo every time.

That's actually not funny at all.

DP. Although I didn't fill the survey out (I figured that if MCPS was really serious about discrimination, they could just check their inbox for the DofEd OCR investigations or maybe the stacks of CFPs?), I can't imagine that MCPS didn't take this into account? Of course there will be prank survey results to discredit the effort. Haven't you read DCUMS before?

It takes a lot of privilege to complain about how much getting those emails bother you compared to other constant pieces of communication MCPS send out when 1) you can delete them and 2) there are probably people from all backgrounds who are craving the chance to speak honestly about their experiences. Look at how popular the "Black at B-CC" "Black at Whitman" accounts were - we can't support equity and diversity unless we create accountability, which was the main theme of those posts ("nothing was done to help me in that situation" or "I'm not doing well because I don't feel genuinely affirmed in this environment and I spend more time here than at home in the course of a typical week"). Think deep down about exactly why those emails bother y'all and other ones don't - for once, you aren't centered, it rightly calls into question your daily experiences/habits, and for once, people who have been undermined are getting what they deserve. It is individuals with mindsets like yours who are going to hurt our county's rep - just because you're liberal or "progressive", doesn't mean you express that selectively or not support causes such as this.

Actually excessive emails, calls, texts bother me regardless of the subject.

I think it’s great they are taking action on an important topic. The first 5 times, maybe the first 10 times I received the reminder I just shrugged and deleted. But this is SO repetitive. Beyond anything that is reasonable in terms of reminders for ANY single thing. It’s bonkers ever but especially when there are so many issues facing MCPS right now due to the pandemic, between worse than ever behavior problems and massive learning loss. Focusing what feels like exclusively on a survey is rubbing me the wrong way at this point.

Dp.im glad they did. The survey is a huge waste of resources.

It is 7.25 in the morning and I have not received my daily spam email, and the follow up correction. Can someone check in and make sure that the folks in MCPS administration are doing OK?
