[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For most sane parents, this is an entirely financial debate because none of us would ever consider actually sending our children to failing schools if rezoned. It would just be expensive to move, that's all. I hope the BOE understands that it can change boundaries, but [b]it will never get our kids[/b].[/quote] You keep saying that. Who's we, and how will the BoE get whoever-we-are's kids?[/quote] My child is not a social experiment. My child is not a full-time tutor. My child is not a stairstep as the education politicians look for a promotion. My family will not play your game. [/quote] Um. Ok, I guess? My kids aren't either, and i don't understand the panic about the boundary analysis. [/quote] I believe that the BOE should be providing the backbone of stabllity to the county, not be the source of anxiety. They should be targeting the gap while also striving to preserve the achievement. [b]They should be fixing what is broken, not messing with what works.[/b] They should be respecting that families chose where they live, not make families question ever investing a red cent into this county. They should be motivating the community to come together, not repeating the experiment of forced demographic integration that failed time and time again nationwide. They should make us proud to be in MCPS instead of questioning daily wherher we made a mistake trusting the MCPS to educate our children.[/quote] How does MCPS fix making parents care about their kids doing well in school? How does MCPS fix families that don't have two parents in a living situation which is been shown any times to hep wiht the outcome of education and stability in a kids life? This situation is much more complex than sending kids in buses all over the place to fix what is broken in the families. [/quote]
