But IS THERE ANYTHING that we parents can do to get the ball moving faster?

No.

Or rather, yes, if that's what you want to do.

(Really, I don't understand this sudden outbreak of "MCPS-ruined-my-children's-future-and-we-must-now-all-flee-at-once" posts. Did your child start MCPS in kindergarten? What have you been doing between then and now?)[/quote]

From the writing style, a lot of them seem to be from the same person (the one who posted this AM about how MCPS ruined her son’s education).[/quote]

The panic-stricken posts are over the top. My kids  are just fine. My oldest started pre-2.0 and that math curriculum was a mess. I think 2.0 has its drawbacks but it’s actually been a bit better for math. DC2 moved  from public to private a few years ago and certainly didn’t seem behind. What I dislike about 2.0 are all the worksheets and the lack of text books, but it’s not as though my kids aren’t learning.

I hope they will think through the next curriculum and not rush to release it. [/quote]
