[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]MCPS should stop wasting money on surveys and contractors and start focusing on properly educating all the kids who meet the parameters for CES/enrichment/magnet schools. Or perhaps MCPS needs to also ask why so many kids qualify for these enhancement programs? Maybe educational standards need to go up. These lotteries are ridiculous.[/quote] Agreed. [/quote] +1 Maybe raise the bar to top 2 percent, the way CTY does, to enter the lottery, and moderate or high FARMs can be locally normed.[/quote] Maybe we could actually dedicate money and resources to expanding the enriched studies program so that every kid who qualifies can access that instruction.[/quote] Most of the new funds this past year went to increasing the number of Central Office positions. [/quote] While there may be new central office positions, ELC is also expanding to all schools so there is supposed to be enrichment available at all schools. How the implement it we will see, but I've heard great things about it from other schools. I find this encouraging. [/quote]
