[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]MCPS can’t afford to purchase any instructional materials right now. [/quote] I thought they just raised our taxes for this?[/quote] They didn’t budget for a 548% increase in legal fees, the over $13mill in student sexual assault lawsuit payouts, or salaries for all of the retirees they brought back to fill in for everyone they placed on paid administrative leave. No idea where they are getting the money to pay people like Navarro who are in brand new positions that didn’t exist when they built the budget for the current fiscal year.[/quote] The more likely reason for not providing a curriculum for ESOL is not because of unanticipated costs, but because MCPS does not prioritize English Learners, just as it does not prioritize the needs of special education students. And the most marginalized students in the system? That would be English Learners with special education needs.[/quote]
