[quote=Anonymous][quote]out of curiousity (and this is a new poster) - what does happen with a change.org petition? does someone delivery it to MCPS or alert them to it?[/quote] The organizer presents it to MCPS. Its also more public so you can be sure that MCPS is aware of this before it gets presented. I have to ask whether the poster who thinks parents should only communicate via behind the scenes private channels works for MCPS. Its fine if you like 2.0 but I've never heard a parent voice that someone should only raise concerns through channels. The reality is that no organization wants their customers or constituencies to publicly voice concerns. This is why PR firms exist to keep anything that doesn't reflect positively on an organization out of visibility. This is exactly why petitions through change.org are very valuable to everyday parents and citizens. A public petition is more likely to force some type of public response. It will not necessarily yield immediate change but the concerns can't be as easily ignored as ones raised in traditional channels. [/quote]
