[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let’s take a breath and understand that it will be what it will be! It is what it is. Parents should let their kids navigate the process by themselves. Put your helicopters in their hangers. Try to put yourself in the minds of the administrators, counselors and teachers who are still figuring out conflicts and other issues with the master. How do I know? Parent of three, grandparent of 10 and FCPS teacher for over three decades. The kid who learns to self advocate will be a success! [/quote] FCPS hides them until 6 am the day of orientation annd only one day before the weekend. It’s absolutely ridiculous. They should release them Monday so kids can compare and everyone can check for errors before school starts. [/quote] If they have schedules complete, they should be visible so the kids can check for mistakes and the counselors can fix their errors before school starts. Really, its absurd. [/quote] They are still enrolling students and in some cases hiring teachers. Parents bothering them all this week and swamping the office staff with calls when they are trying to get the year on track, just so they complain about getting the math teacher that they heard grades to hard or because their kid wants the cool science teacher instead of the old boring one will only slow things down and throw a monkey wrench in the back to school operation Your kids are closer to college than kindergarten, and closer to having babies than being babies. [b]They are fully capable of meeting with the counsellr the first week to correct any mistakes in their schedules. [/b] Thursday is plenty of time to get your kids schedule.[/quote] There shouldn't be any mistakes. How do mistakes happen?[/quote] The only changes that should be happening after school starts are kids realizing they chose the wrong level course (too hard, too easy etc). The errors are always the counselor's mistakes because they input the course selections. If they were contacted prior to school starting with a change request, that should be taken care of BEFORE school starts, in a timely manner.[/quote]
