[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]thing is - What's good for my kids (short bus ride or walk) is good for ALL kids.

But if it ain't broke for my kid, don't mess with our situation.

Why would I want to uproot my kid - only to place him/her in some school farther out?

This is why we moved over a year ago - b/c I knew the system was grasping at anything to keep it afloat at the most superficial level.

no thanks[/quote]

Yes, I also believe that MCPS/BoE should make decisions based on what's best for my individual children. Of course, what's best for my individual children may not be what's best for your individual children. That might be a problem.[/quote]

not a problem for us b/c we moved

These chess moves don't hit the root of the dysfunction; they're simply PC measures that make MCPS APPEAR to address the achievement gaps.  HCPS will not see changes after the redistricting, and neither will MCPS.

There's no discipline.  Teachers are left on their own. Grades are a joke.  Deadlines disappeared.  Exams are gone, and attendance is whatever you want it to be.

but the most dangerous measure of all?  requiring that teachers become psychologists, social workers, and counselors 
slippery slope, folks - And it's happening right under your noses.
