[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am overloaded as a parent as are many of you. I saw a stat that most Americans read at below an 8th grade level- many are at a 6th grade level or lower. I then panicked when I found out late to the game that MCPS has been a complete shit show for reading, including not using instructional materials based on the science of reading and having students read below grade level texts.

I started mandating reading at home, because I was worried that my kids would not progress beyond 8th grade- despite having both parents who went to grad school.

No more graphic novels at home and reading at least 2 hours a week of grade level or higher texts. In a few months, DS had read more books at home then for all of middle school.

It's sad that mcps cannot be trusted to do the basics but here we are.[/quote]

Oh shut up if you can not parent correctly that is on you

What do you think kids in Alabama do in the worst school system in the US?

MCPS teaches kids to read cognitively that is why we have an educated population in MD and are still a blue state!

Why the hell did you have kids ?

Take your kids to a dam library oh wait you are too lazy to read with your kids every night. You are too lazy to discuss the books they are reading in school.

My father had a HS education and a low paying mechanic job where he worked 6 days a week to support us. He found the time to read to us suggest books and take us to book stores.

This is not an MCPS problem it is a you problem.

I had six kids and countless nieces and nephews go through MCOS it does a great job!

MCPS is a large school system it has to meet a ton of needs but it is dam well better than any red state
