[quote=Anonymous]Thank you for saying this. Former teacher here - (just left) and I firmly believe all of this WILL NOT SOLVE all these equity 'concerns' they have. Our families are struggling. STRUGGLING. There are many who can do exactly what some do - outsource education. But to expect all families can do this is not equitable. We are in a very unique county with many many immigrants who are not familiar with the American educational system. I cannot tell you how hard it was to connect with families at home for various reasons - do they want their children to succeed? Of course! But they don't know how. Shoving kids into these classrooms all together to 'learn' from each other is actually more harmful. Want to reduce behavior problems? Fix the classrooms first. Give these students back their power by educating them where they are at. These students, especially at the secondary level, need an incredible amount of support that a single teacher in a classroom cannot do on their own. MCPS needs to revitalize their teaching - stop wasting time with educational trends and someone's pretend educational doctorate dissertation project. They waste precious resources and time where we could be on the ground with actual peer-reviewed interventions to help our most vulnerable and struggling succeed. THAT IS EQUITY MCPS. Get with the program. I am so glad so many people are speaking up to see through this facade. Do things the right way for once in your short-sighted, non-equitable ways MCPS. You are failing the entire community. Do better.

Truthfully, I don’t know a single teacher who supports the regional program.
I don’t agree with MCEA on everything but I do agree that regional program is set up to fail.

I guess, per Montoya, that makes MCEA, every teacher who opposes, and me “racist”.

Another former teacher here - agree with you completely.[/quote]
