[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]The focus in MCPS is on kids with IEPs[/b] and this that are EML (even more attention for those dually coded). It’s a crapshoot from school to school what kind of leadership you’ll get because McPs is a “system of schools” and not a school system.

Our child’s elementary teacher was suspended for a week earlier this year for hitting and shaking a kid in front of the entire class. No communication from admin about the incident or follow up counseling for kids that witnessed it. Just a bunch of random subs while their classmate got transferred to another class. After winter break, the teacher told kids to stop wearing clothing with pockets because the class was full of thieves.

The principal presents to parents as if the teacher did nothing wrong but I pray he chewed the teacher out behind closed doors. She has over 30 years in McPS so I doubt there are any kind of formal
Observations. At this point, MCPs is desperate and will take any warm
Body to work in a classroom.

Also, it seems so ridiculous to me that elementary kids don’t get social studies and science regularly. Our school will do one subject weekly for a month and then switch to the other. This is where private schools have a huge leg up. They are actually teaching all subjects AND incorporating true SEL and EF in their curriculums.

MCPs was a si king ship, but it’s recently been lit on fire by all of the bad PR. Anyone that can gets out and gets their kids out[/quote]

I strongly disagree with this statement. MCPS does the absolute minimum for kids with IEPs. Sure kids with disruptive behavior suck attention away, but most kids with IEPs are not disruptive and parents are forced to spend money on outside resources and fight tooth and nail for what is provided at school.
