I thought the letter was very respectfully put but cited the clearly negative past experience this group has had with having its concerns dismissed. Given that GTA put the letter and comments together, I think it's entirely appropriate for them to have posted the final to help share it with others.

But [b]I'm sure 17:13/17:21 will simply cry "she's the GTA in disguise,[/b] unlike us who are clearly identified and non-anonymous posters!"

PP at 18:39 here.  Thanks for proving me right, PP @ 22:01!  what took you so long? :)

Personally I think the concerns of GTA appears to have been dismissed in the past since the competing viewpoint (no labels, no grouping) has mustered a lot of political pressure on their side and the MCPS leadership seems to have taken a philosophical view that agrees with that group for PC reasons.  But that's just my guess since i  had not even heard about GTA until a few weeks ago.  I hope for my preschooler's sake that that the MCPS mindset changes on the grouping/acceleration issues - regardless of whether they embrace GTA as a group.[/quote]
