[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is just another indication as to why MCPS is TOO large.  In any large (corporate-style) entity, there is often mismanagement and waste.

I grew up in an area with smaller, town-based school district and there was much more accountability.   Much easier to identify the waste and call it out.

My SIL teaches in a charter school in Philly and it is WAY better.  She loves how she can easily make requests for change and implement practices that support the students easier and quicker. [/quote]

There is still waste in a town-based school district model. You just have many smaller bureaucracies instead of one large bureaucracy. New Jersey has nearly 700 people who are district superintendents; Maryland has 24. [/quote]

Exactly. So much more room for redundancies.

A lot of tiny districts are sharing non-classroom teachers across several schools because they're just isn't the money to hire someone full-time. [/quote]

Why would that be a negative?  How is that any different from what MCPs does?  MCPs hires teachers to work in multiple schools.  Also hires teachers who work in private schools.
