[quote=Anonymous]If you work for the "county," as you claim, I trust you even less.  I happened to attend the recent math 2.0 meeting hosted by the MCPTA group.  A collection of bumbling bureaucrats from MCPS attempted to explain the sorry state of math in the schools under 2 (prompted, no doubt, by the outcry from dissatisfied parents).  The bureaucrats made any number of contradictory statements regarding possible acceleration/enrichment, grouping students by ability, future roll-outs beginning in fall 2013 and, generally, the rigor of the curriculum.

Please, watch the rebroadcast of this sorry performance by your fellow county officials and you will see why parents have lost confidence.  Principals and teachers are getting the same contradictory messages that parents are getting.  If things were as clear you would have us believe, the answers to basic questions would be clear as well.  They are not.  When you watch, please take note of how often the answer is "we're working on that" or "we're in the process of looking into that."  Trust me the good teachers are as frustrated by this mess as the parents are.[/quote]
