[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is mcps afraid it won't be seen as one of the better school systems in the country because it gets weapons detection systems in its high schools? Is this STILL about image and optics? My f g[/quote] I believe it is mostly about budget, staffing, and logistics.[/quote] It's all about all of those things. MCPS does not want to have to invest in weapons detectors [b]because imagewise[/b], it puts them on the same footing as PGCPS and DCPS, who they've always held themselves up as better than. They also don't want to invest the money, staffing and resources to do it because they want to use that money to plug other holes in the budget. They want principals to get their schools under control so that they aren't forced to spend on this kind of stuff.[/quote] Wake up, MCPS, it is not the 90s! That "image" you're holding onto has long long passed!!![/quote]
