[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Back on topic the superintendent and board got knocked down a few pegs today. So MCEA even though they weren’t physically present at the table. [/quote]

How so? [/quote]

MCPS/BOE tried to get the committee’s cuts restored by the full council. Not only did that fail, but nine of the council members lectured them on poor performance, transparency, bullying, and fiscal responsibility. [/quote]

Thank you for sharing this! You MUST watch Dawn @ 2:00. SHE NAILED IT! As a teacher, I have always questioned the accuracy of any of student data. We are not allowed to hold students accountable when our admin forces us to practically change the grades to make them pass! During COVID, I had an admin try to force me to change everyone's grade to passing (C or better) which means even if they never did any work.  Once that conversation happened, I lost all respect for MCPS.  I also left that school. I refused and told them they had to change the grades themselves.  I won't. Your kids are not going to be prepared for life after MCPS unless you as a parent teach them about the importance of executive functioning. MCPS is failing students not literally, but in so many ways.  So many ways.  [/quote]

I’m impressed with Dawn. I was very much on the fence about her but I’m pleasantly surprised. She is my representative, but I’m not sure what school her kids go to. At my kids school the deadlines are enforced. [/quote]
