Why are you calling names and bully people on this forum for asking questions and hoping for better future for all children.

+1 It’s called gaslighting. The MCPS PR firm is working overtime to deflect from the lack of effective leadership of the school system.

The Russian Troll Farm is working overtime to suggest anyone supporting MCPS is a PR hack.

This is a typical paid public relations post calling names and online bullying parents discouraging from serious discussions on topics that effects future of the students at MCPS.

Someone calling "Foul!" every time anyone thinks MCPS is trying to do something right is a team of PR people paid by MCPS?

Really?

Wow!

(Deluded much?)

New poster but I hope it's not the PR team, because if it is, they're awful. They shouldn't be trying to pit parents against Mcps leadership. Nor should they be calling people names. If they were earning their keep, they'd be getting these threads to die, not inflaming passions and keeping them going. I work for another school system, and the PR folks don't engage in that way. The threads are far more conciliatory, if they engage at all. Things tend to be less polarizing and therefore less dynamic and interesting, and therefore the threads peter out.

Many parents like myself are fed up with the non-stop negativity and trumped-up conspiracies that a few posters are always going on about. I know I am.

It does seem like these negative nellies try to bully anyone who disagrees with them into silence by calling them a shill. MCPS isn't perfect by any means but overall I feel my kids are doing well, and the issues these people are complaining about like bocce ball don't reflect my concerns.

That all just affirms the "MCPS is always awful" mindset these people bring to the discussion!

Nope. MCPS used to be pretty good. But it is what it is. If you think things are going well for your kid, great. But come Fall, I think you'll see what we're talking about.

MCPS is still pretty good, as good is a relative measure in comparison to everything else. If MCPS is bad, then the greater majority of the nation is really bad or something worse. And if that is true then we should be focusing waay more at the State level and National level that is driving many of the performance indicators, funding and a lot of other things that impact education. Not to mention major vendors like textbook publishers. All of which frankly needs to happen. This will bring us back to initiatives like common core, improving teacher education programs, paying highly effective teachers, etc. And hopefully a discussion about reasonable testing and what qualifies as a quality exam and metrics.

Typical name calling, online bullying and diversion tactics used by paid PR firm. Ignore this kind of comments. What a waste of tax payer money
