[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Man, the PTA gifted committee worked so hard to get ELC everywhere and now apparently MCPS is getting rid of it just a few years later.  Does that committee even do anything anymore?  You would think they'd be more active in trying to fight this...[/quote]

I think it's mainly a Facebook mom social club. They aren't serious about engaging with the community or recruiting help or  executing projects. [/quote]

I have not volunteered (shame on me) but I see them recruiting all the time. They begged folks to get involved in the question of differentiating ELA at the MS and early HS levels and I'm not sure anyone ever did.

They are also the only reason we know the "tiers" of schools in CES and magnet MS evaluations, and the cut-offs for each at least for one year.

The problem with an initiative led by parents, though, is that kids grow up or jobs change and people have less time than they used to, and if a new generation of activists doesn't step in, initiatives die.

The problem is MCPS should be doing this Full time job, not parents who do not work for MCPS![/quote]
