[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Clear communication and confident leadership can make a huge difference. I'm a DCPS parent but it is telling how rarely you hear from PG parents complaining about the school situation. These boards are filled with complaints from MoCo, DC, and the VA districts, but I can't even remember a single specific complaint about PGC's handling. Kudos to all of you.

As a DCPS parent one of my main complaints is not that schools have been closed but that DCPS and the Mayor have exploited the challenges parents are facing with remote learning (and they are real and important, lets not sugar coat it) [b]as a cudgel to force the teachers union to agree to things that they were never going to agree to. If DCPS had the interests of kids and families at heart from the beginning, [/b]then they, like PG County, would have been honest with parents about limitations and crafted a plan that allowed parents to plan in advance. I'm not saying people would have been happy about the closure, but I think you would have seen less increasing impatience and anger as proposed opening dates kept getting pushed further and further back, and plans constantly shifted and failed to deliver on promises.[/quote]

I think a lot of it stems from the fact that Dr. Goldson is a former teacher in PGCPS as well as a current PGCPS parent.[/quote]
