[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have taught in MCPS for almost twenty years.  I have happily had my kids in HCPSS since kindergarten.  I will be moving into Montgomery County next month as I couldn’t pass down the opportunity to move into a home that I inherited from a relative.  I’m very nervous and already looking into private schools for HS.

I know what doesn’t make the news and I’m not happy with the direction MCPS is going.  [/quote]

As taxpayers, we are so happy that your privilege can afford you a free house and private school tuition.  :roll: [/quote]

You should be happy she's stuck around for 20 years!  Many staff are leaving the MCPS hellscape.[/quote]
Left last year and would never go back![/quote]

How long were you here - i.e., were you here when it was considered good/decent (before the pandemic)?[/quote]
I was there around 18 years. It probably was going downhill before the pandemic but afterwards it was a stark difference but I also could see in hindsight how things had been changing even before the pandemic. After the pandemic, there were so many unchecked social- emotional issues with students and MCPS was doubling down on teaching to the test. As a teacher, I felt unsupported and such low job satisfaction. I am happier now at an independent school but in hindsight, I may have ever gotten into education if I had known what things are like in public schools now.[/quote]

You are insufferable.  We get it..You hate MCPS. You got out. Good for you.  Now go find a hobby.  [/quote]
You can find a hobby, too! Staying on a sinking ship is your choice.[/quote]
