[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The issue isn’t MCPS. Its society. This is the first generation being raised with phones and iPads as easy entertainment. Kids don’t learn to manage themselves, think for themselves, be creative, etc. Their parents are millennials who were raised in structured activities, trophy for everything, and now don’t have some essential parenting skills like setting boundaries.

The public education system isn’t designed to be a service industry that so many people treat it as. Too many people (federal, state, local, individual) have very different ideas of how it should operate, which pulls it in too many directions. Yes there are plenty of problems, but it’s not something that MCPS alone can fix.[/quote]

Stop giving MCPS an out for its dysfunction:

- Cycling through 3 different superintendents in the past 2 years is very much a uniquely MCPS problem
- The Beidleman Scandal is definitely an MCPS problem and issue, not a national one
- The EV Bus contract mismanagement was also an MCPS problem, not a national one
- The Woodward/Northwood construction fiasco is also MCPS

Even if we want to give MCPS a pass for the trends associated with teacher/principal burnout and increases in student misbehavior, there is massive corruption, instability and leadership failures within the school system that exacerbate those issues. MCPS IS the problem.[/quote]
