[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just clicked on the link.  Thanks for posting.  Most people make really good points.  Unfortunately, our BOE and MCPS leadership don’t care.

Smaller class sizes and better discipline sounds like common requests that I think, everyone could get behind.  Why can’t MCPS start there?[/quote]

Except that costs money and a tax hike needed to pay for this will mostly go to create more central office jobs.

The bottom line is MCPS is about the same or even better than years past, the demographics of the county are what has changed. That has an impact on standardized test scores but doesn't mean you can't get a great education. People just need to accept and adapt instead of focusing on a past that never really existed.[/quote]
Blaming it on “changing demographics” is just an excuse to lay the decline of MCPS at the feet of the black and brown students and not the incompetent administration.[/quote]

DP here. I don't think anyone is blaming the changing demographics. Or at least they shouldn't.  The issue is that MCPS has been using the wrong strategies for addressing the needs of the changing demographics [/quote]
