[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe Taylor thinks he is cutting the bloat but some of the positions he is cutting that are labeled "central office" are really special ed positions that are the glue to keeping the programs together. Also, he knows little about special ed and he is putting people in positions that also know little about it (looking at you April Key) and those staff are just warm bodies and create extra work for those who actually know how the programs run. He never asked me but the bloat I see is due to logistics and inefficiencies with how the programs operate and how bad the technology is for the staff who need to do increasing amounts of paperwork. For years we have been begging for a more streamlined process and the state and MCPS respond by making more paperwork with added complexities. And because there are not great training for all the new special ed folks coming in there are big mistakes being made.[/quote] Clinical specialists are being reassigned and leaders with clinical expertise are shown the door. It triples the work for school-based SPED resource teachers. Taylor does not differentiate between "specialists." [/quote]
