It's insane to concentrate all the poverty in certain schools. These schools don't get any money to help them address these kids' needs. What a world we live in that rich people are so selfish they want to keep all the poor kids out of their school. Jfc

And we know it's not just about bus rides. There are zero options considering putting ToK at Einstein which is their closest school. It's about property values that everyone knows are propped up by the legacy of redlining.

The schools in the poorer areas get ALL the money! What are you even talking about? Title 1 schools get the funding. That’s how it works. maybe research before making comments. Have you been inside these schools in poor areas? Because they are in MUCH better condition with far more resources than the schools in the more affluent areas. They get priority for funding.

There are zero Title 1 or focus high schools, they absolutely do not get "all the money". In fact, wealthy schools have more experienced teachers who are paid more than less experienced teachers. None of this is tracked or accounted for in measures of per pupil funding, they just assign an average teacher cost, but personnel is by far the largest cost for schools.

And your statement about better conditions at high poverty schools is too ridiculous for words.

Have you been to the high poverty schools? because I have had to be in several for work and they are ALL in better condition then the higher rated schools my kids go to. So no it’s not ridiculous, it’s true.

I see. You see a few high poverty schools in good condition and you resent it because you think the wealthy schools should be nicer. Do any search for MCPS building conditions and you will find several examples of high poverty schools in such bad condition that they are a health hazard for students and staff.

Which neighborhoods are paying the taxes? Why shouldn't those kids get schools comparatively as nice as their homes?

You are free to move to New Jersey if you like that arrangement.

And when people say, falsely, that the high poverty schools get "all the money" what they mean is it is unfair that the wealthy schools don't get much more than they do

Thank you for illustrating that what you think is that the schools with the highest needs should have the fewest resources

All the schools should get the same resources from the county. The neighborhoods should be allowed to chip in more if they want their school to be nicer.

No it is not and in states that have that crap schools are only good if one can afford them and that is not the American way nor does it follow the Constitution of the US. There is not one study that shows that privatizing schools is a good idea and our Military died for the right for all children to have an education.

We are not moving to Christian Nationalism and having our tax $ pay for religious education.

Massachusetts, Connecticut, Wisconsin, and Minnesota all use mostly town/city based school districts.

Honestly, it is mostly states with bad public school systems that use the county model- the south.

Christianity is the dominate culture in the US. Be real. MCPS doesn't exactly care about antisemitism. At our school holiday concerts are Christmas songs only.

I think MCPS is a good case study of how this can backfire. As the quality of public schools drop, the rich will become less invested in the public schools as they move their kids to private. That leads them to use their political influence to fight taxes that would go to improve these schools. So, a death spiral.

You don't see this where there are town-based districts because the rich can take advantage of their own wealth while also getting state funding.
