[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Delusional, OP. That announcement was pathetic and arrogant. MCPS is committed to ignoring community concerns and gaslighting the public.

They straight-up confessed that the regional  IB programs are so inferior that students prefer longer bus rides to avoid them, and used that as justification to kill the successful IB program.

MCPS is absolutely committed to following through at MS and ES level, which is why they obliterated TPMS, CES, and ELC.

The tall poppies must be cut! The crabs must pull each other down! Harrison Bergeron is their instruction manual. [/quote]

Do you mind telling us how they "obliterated" TPMS? Because I drove by the other day and the school was right there. [/quote]

And if you don't know about the lottery, you're just completely out of the loop. [/quote]

So, the item you linked is about the schedule change, which is not something MCPS did. The schedule change, while messaged/handled miserably by the school-level administrator, was a done deal the moment that the teachers voted on it. There was nothing anyone could do at that point. It was a labor issue, not something the Central Office did to the school.

As for the lottery, you do realize that happened to all MS magnet programs, right? Why was only TPMS "obliterated?" [/quote]
