You're from Central Office, I presume.  No one else would think "MCEA is saying that MCPS is rushing through an incredibly complicated plan on a too short timeline without figure out enough of the details and gathering enough feedback-- that critique is only acceptable if they present their own version of the incredibly complicated plan to spell out exactly what details they think should he different."[/quote]

You want to take a moment to rephrase this? If I follow your train of thought (which, sorry, was challenging), sounds like you are from Central Office and you are accusing MCEA of not doing the job that MCPS is supposed to do. MCPS methodology to date, now openly identified as iterative, should have had an educator-inclusive process that also had [i]meaningful[/I] community input, not input that was ignored.[/quote]

Are you talking to me or the person I was quoting?  The person I was quoting is probably someone from Central Office.  I don't know why else they would say of MCEA "Why are they speaking out now?  They are demanding new ideas from MCPS, but why not suggest a better plan?". PP is presumably trying to discredit MCEA, but you and I both agree that MCEA should not have to "suggest a better plan" in order to critique what MCPS has done and call for slowing down the program model and doing it better.[/quote]
