[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Guilty?  What did you do to contribute to the situation?  I feel absolutely no guilt...but then I also don't feel that our schools are crumbling hellscapes.  My neighborhood schools in FCPS are nice and do what they need to do.  And how can you even compare the two systems without doing an in depth analysis of the structure of their local governments and their population numbers.  You are trying to stir up anger and discontent and whining because someone, somewhere else, has something nicer than you.  If it bothers you to the point of guilt...you should move to where your kids will go to Mt. Carmel.[/quote]

Yeah, I know.  But in our pyramid the schools that have been renovated recently seem to have gotten renovations that are very basic and not that nice compared to schools in other pyramids, and then they do nothing about some of the other schools.  It feels like a combination of FCPS being underfunded and overwhelmed, on one hand, and deliberately steering resources elsewhere, on the other hand.

I don’t think it’s actually hurt the education my kids are receiving, but over time I definitely expect the pyramid to decline - like it or not people do pay attention to appearances and there’s such a big gap between the quality of facilities in many parts of FCPS now and the quality of facilities at schools in APS and LCPS (much less a beautiful facility like Carmel HS).
