[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lot of BS stuff about social emotional learning and nothing about how they are going to close the achievement gap and the learning loss.[/quote]

plan is to lower the standards enough so that everyone can perform at same level. Highly abled need to slow down and chill out. not work so hard on subjects so that others can catch up.[/quote]

This is a false narrative designed to sow seeds of dissent among different groups within MCPS.  We need to collaborate as a community and work together to solve myriad issues within MCPS.  The Princeton-bound kid is not suffering because another child is 15 and functionally illiterate. Both are important for the future of our community.[/quote]

Agree sure I hear this all the time BUT my own kids have had many wonderful opportunities to achieve and be challenged. One had around 30 college credits from APs and the other is on track to do similarly.[/quote]

We're also happy. Many just enjoy complaining, but in my experience, MCPS is made up of many teachers and administrators who have gone above and beyond to put kids first.[/quote]

+1. This board would have you believing MCPS is horrible.  Its not.  Sure there are a few bad apples here and there but that would be true anywhere.  Are there things that MCPS can improve upon, sure but this is true anywhere.  Whats really needed is community engagement, support, and effort.  But many just like engaging in complaint.  Ask them to run for the school PTA, MCCPTA, attend community meetings about BOE and county council candidates, or do extra homework/practice with their kids and you’ll get crickets.[/quote]

Exactly, then they'll sock puppet a torrent of posts on their pet issue drowning out any dissent.[/quote]
