[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do all MCPS have the same education or not?

So sick of seeing over and over how “W” schools are privileged while TPMS and apparently Loiderman students take more classes than the rest of MCPS.

All middle school students should have the opportunity to take core classes plus extra electives not just a select few based on zip code. We should invest in all students not focus on a few students served by magnets.

And don’t say W parents can just supplement. Guess what? There are FARMS students everywhere.[/quote]

No they don’t.  And there are very few farms at the w schools compared to other schools.  This post is deceptive as they aren’t taking away the program, just changing the schedule and it’s been talked about for years.  [/quote]

The administration recruited based on the 8 period schedule. Highly encouraged magnet kids to take languages and assured parents there would still be room for a true elective. All along, they knew what was coming and did it anyway. If it was solely a reorg to brings things in to compliance, I think it would be accepted better. It’s the deception and the bait and switch and the total lack of transparency over the past several months that has people feeling used and abused. They just hoped families would be too invested by then to bolt. Admin needs to go.[/quote]
