[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you read the teachers sub on Reddit they just want you to send your kid to school fed, clean, with a good night's sleep, and self-sufficient. They especially seem to frown on parents who supplement; I remember a thread where someone was asking about extra math and reading for kindergarten and the consensus was that getting your child too far ahead of the others makes their job harder so don't do it. They want you to teach them how to tie their shoelaces and zip their coats instead. 
At our public school they don't allow parent volunteers at all except at evening events so there is no contact with the teachers. They ask for Amazon wish list contributions.[/quote]

That’s Reddit teachers. They come from schools all over the US, many of which differ dramatically from MCPS. [/quote]

Yeah, that doesn't sound very MCPS. We were told in 3rd grade "all the kids get supplemental math either thru a class or a tutor and you should do the same to keep up"

and we did and our kid is now in 10th and STILL has a weekly math tutor.[/quote]
