[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Actually the school has absolutely no obligation to stimulate your child. [b]The obligation is to prepare them for the workforce/college.[/b] If your child isn't stimulated get them a hobby or tutor. [/quote] And the current job market reflects MCPS is doing a fantastic job of preparing our kids for the workforce and college. Do you know how many MCPS kids go on to college and then graduate? How many MCPS kids are getting jobs? How many MCPS kids are still home in their parents basement or on their parents dime even after College? If MCPS doesn't provide a challenging and stimulating curriculum in the classroom (beginning at the elementary school level) for our children, the unemployment rate will continue to rise and kids will continue to enter our colleges unprepared and return to the family basement. $2.2 billion/year must get our kids more than a 6-hour baby sitting service with teachers and their union as the Baby Sitters and the Principal--the Head Baby Sitter in Chief.[/quote] Huh!?!? I wish this wasn't anonymous because I'm sure you wouldn't post ridiculous stuff like this. Montgomery county has not even been affected by the recession. This is one of the best places to be in the country. Let me repeat, challenging and stimulating has nothing to do with preparing kids for college or the work force. Go to Kumon if you want to see how many grades above you work on wthout deserving it but that will not fly in our school system. That is all.[/quote]
