Has Acting Superintendent McKnight asked people to address her as Doctor? That’s different from using it herself.

Although, I disagree that is even basic courtesy. You didn’t answer my question from the previous post. If your Physical Therapist used the title “Dr.” and asked you to use it too, would you think that was appropriate? Or would you think that is a misuse of the term?[/quote]

Her bio says "Dr. McKnight". You don't assume you can refer to the head of a large organization by their first name. Well, you do, because you are a rude person. I thought this wod be obvious, but let me spell it out for you: I refer to anyone with a doctorate as Dr. unless they ask me not to or it is a casual situation (or I am not aware of their educational background)[/quote]

I'm not the person you're arguing with, but let me guess, you work for MCPS, probably CO, right?

I'm glad the biggest issue MCPS is facing is whether to call someone with a Doctorate in Education a "Dr." (versus actually discussing covid response).[/quote]
