[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pre-pandemic I would have said that is not normal. When I was in MCPS, we had labs in middle school science classes. I have no idea what the children normally do in middle school science these days with regard to labs.[/quote] Are you a parent? MCPS is completely different than when you were a kid. Even pre-pandemic MS and HS science labs were scaled back a lot from when we were kids. I think a PP has hit the nail on the head that it is related to very large class sizes and budget restrictions (our science teachers told us they didn't have enough budget for lab materials). In my kid's MS the PTA provided money for lab materials but some teachers used the extra money and some didn't. Very frustrating.[/quote]
