[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If the Board of Education truly values closing the Achievement Gap, then why are they spending so much on these selective programs vs. using the money toward more resources and support for the disadvantaged, low income student populations? [/quote] MCPS already puts lots of resources toward disadvantaged students. That does not mean that high achieving students should be ignored. Congratulations..based on your outstanding grades and test scores you are no longer eligible for public school in MCPS![/quote] I think MCPS should stop FARMS program and instead get more tutoring and teaching for disadvantaged and low income students. They are in the business of education, not in the business of providing welfare. Let the county give food stamps etc to the families. MCPS will save a lot of money in this way.[/quote]
