[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We moved to Montgomery County because of the schools, and now, we are moving out for the exact same reason. MCPS has been deteriorating on so many levels over the last decade. It feels like watching a car wreck in slow motion. Our kids deserve better.[/quote]

On so many levels. It’s an absolute disaster. Our school (Travilah elementary) is in an outright crisis of confidence with staff departures over the last few years, abrupt resignations, and more that can be directly tied to the pressures MCPS places on teachers and admins to make testing and ridiculous choices about equity and other intangible uselessness more important than academic excellence and character. I’m so sad to see it. We can’t afford private and have done all we can to support the school but the environment is a nightmare and the news about MCPS worse every day.[/quote]

It oversized focus on equity as opposed to high quality education for all kids and support for outstanding teachers is disappointing across MCPS. The issue at Travilah is also the leadership (principal). She is lacking in leadership and abysmal when it comes to communication. Has turned a great ES school into chaos. I had two kids that came out of Travilah. [/quote]
