[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have no idea because our lazy principal didn’t take up any new curriculum this year (math or ELA). “2.0 works great!” was what she told us in a PTA meeting when someone asked why.[/quote]

Not every school could pilot a new curriculum. Principals made a request 2 years ago to pilot either math or literacy, found out if their request would be honored and then it was delayed a year due to the disaster with Erick Lang. Then once the new curricula was selected, the original requests were honored. Many schools aren't doing either new curriculum this year but eventually every school will be doing both. [/quote]

There is absolutely no need to defend our principal. She is awful, as the survey results posted on the MCPS website routinely find, with both parents and teachers/staff giving the school management extremely low ratings. My hope is that she will be gone next year, but I doubt she will. She didn’t want to pilot either curriculum because that would be more work for her.[/quote]

I’m the PP and I believe you. I’ve thought my principal is awful but we got a new AP this year who is downright awful and makes my principal actually look good by default. Just FYI, on the survey there’s no actual question about admin. The wording is “leadership”, which our principal told us that MCPS reads that as the school instructional leadership team which is comprised of our peers. So there is no actual question about school administrators. Typical MCPS. Then they’d actually have to do something about ineffective administrators if they couldn’t pretend they didn’t know about the problem. [/quote]
