[quote=Anonymous]MCPS - yes, it was necessary. I am convinced that the reason MCPS is viewed so favorably is due mostly to a high percentage of parents supplementing either at home or with a tutoring service. I don't think they'll ever resolve the achievement gap. Not only is it an incredibly complex situation that is hard to overcone under the best circumstances, but the successful students are succeeding, in large part, in spite of MCPS. Throwing more money to teach a bad curriculum more effectively does not help you don't fix the curriculum. The most effective teachers my kids supplemented the curriculum because they recognised that kids needed the content, even if MCPS doesn't.[/quote]
