[quote=Anonymous]Precisely because I have lost hope in FCPS; the system is broken beyond repair.

And, I was becoming discouraged and frustrated with FCPS with each passing school year, well before COVID.

- overcrowded schools (trailers and modulars for decades, staff using storage rooms for offices)

- overcrowded classrooms (poor classroom management, constant distractions, shared supplies)

- focus on just about everything except academics (school name changes, unisex bathrooms, equity and diversity, SOL teaching to the test, no textbooks, school as social services, endless award ceremonies, surveys, assessments, "programming"...

- but with above-listed under consideration, woe to the parent of an "average" student who needs extra instruction in math, for example. Help is NOT available. Now, if it is nearly time for SOLs and your child is "at risk" for a low score or actually "fails" an SOL, then you'll get an offer of essentially test prep.

- DH has tutored DC in math all through ES. Then we hired a private tutor for balance of MS/HS.

- My 2DC learned more via a well-known tutoring center than they ever learned in FCPS. [/quote]
