[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly the MCPS staff sound incompetent. They are claiming that they need to rank schools by CEP and FARMS and "that's new". It's not clear what ranking "by CEP" means. From what I have read, there is no new federal restriction on collecting income data from families and using that to rank schools for Title 1. MCPS just didn't do it. They also claim they could not have predicted this happening and that is just stunning? Why couldn't you predict this??? It seems completely obvious. Lots of hemming and hawing about how this happens every year and how they don't want to take money from other schools and the principals decided. WTF. I feel bad for the BOE to to have to deal with these morons.[/quote]

+1 on incompetent. They did not predict the Title I problem and thought it would just be easier on everyone not to push completion of the the FARMS forms.[/quote]

Is it really a problem? [/quote]

If fewer people qualified as poor, it might even be an indication that things are improving![/quote]

If they indicated the shift was intentional, and justified it based on the data, that would be fine. But instead they said, "We had no idea this would happen! There is nothing we can do and the principals all agreed!"[/quote]

Where did they say this exactly?[/quote]
