[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I live less than two blocks from Greentree and used to volunteer at this organization. They do a lot of good and I think the center has offered up some good suggestions of ways to help. Think about how much teens in MCPS in general are struggling, and the uptick in violence even among those students who have stable home lives and who aren't living in a new environment away from family where they likely feel like a fish out of water. [b]There's a big divide between the background and advantages of a typical child who finds themselves needing to live at Greentree and the typical Whitman teen. [/b][/quote] Sounds like you're suggesting they should be placed in another school district as being placed in the Whitman district is too much of an adjustment for them.[/quote] Why not have school at the facility. It seems that they would be better off having their particular educational needs met on-site alongside the therapeutic and clinical staff.[/quote] MCPS BOE closed the educational facility for the worst troublemakers years ago -- it was Twain school in Rockville. Now they just shuttle the problem around by transferring the problem student to another school in MCPS. The main instigator in the Damascus rape case was on his second or third school when that happened.[/quote]
