[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Berkeley Count, WV -- about a 1-hour drive from MoCo -- will be reopening for 5-day in-person instruction for children that want it. DL for those who dont':

Most interesting is this:

"Approximately half of the district’s 3,000 employees have responded to a survey asking for their comments, and 78 percent of the respondents have indicated a willingness to return to school, he said"

So 78 percent of staff there are willing to go back to school, compared to only 25% of MCPS staff. [/quote]

Ah, yes, the educational powerhouse that is WEST VIRGINIA.  LOL.  Ranked somewhere right around 40th of the 50 states in public schools.

Anyone who moves their kids there just to get in-person will prove beyond any doubt that they don't give a damn about education -- they just want free babysitting.[/quote]

Of course, a school district that has 19,500 students, four high schools, six middle schools, six intermediate schools and 16 elementary schools is definitely the county that should be the example for MD schools.

Montgomery County has 163K students, 25 high schools, 40 middle schools and 135 elementary schools
PG County has 130K students, 23 high schools, 24 middle schools, 123 elementary school schools and 8 academy/charter schools
Anne Arundel has 80K students,  12 high schools, 19 middle schools, 79 elementary schools
Howard County has 59K students, 12 high schools, 20 middle schools, 42 elementary schools

It's a trivial jump to go from under 20K students and 32 schools to 160K students and 200 schools.  I'm sure all of the problems and solutions scale perfectly to size and there will be no additional problems of scale.  [/quote]
