[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t understand the economics. Where does 16k a kid go? Seems that 4 kids pay the teachers salary but class sizes are 20-25. [/quote]

MCPS wastes an enormous amount of money.  It’s insane.  Plus the salaries of Central Office employees.

Look through DCUM for some threads about the enormous waste in MCPS.

Part of the issue is that MCPS is just too big and doesn’t have any oversight.  [/quote]
Yeah. But how much would hiring a lot of people and doing lots of audits cost?[/quote]

How much do MCPS meetings that are never followed up on cost?

Privates are smaller and therefore more flexible to meet the needs of students.

MCPS is huge and doesn’t give a damn if children are educated. Leaders are constantly vying for that next promotion or lucrative contract hire after they leave MCPS.  Even MCPS leadership doesn’t think that the schools are good enough for their children who are enrolled in private schools.[/quote]

MCPS is fine. I think the real problem is bad parents. Their children would fail pretty much anywhere.[/quote]

You definitely work for the schools.  I swear I got this line from DC’s teacher back in first grade after dyslexia diagnosis (although county would not and still won’t use that word).[/quote]

What did you do to fix it?   Anyone with a child who needs help, knows not to rely on MCPS [/quote]

Oh I fixed it…left, thank you very much teacher!  Now, what do YOU do for these children for your salary as a public servant for the hours you have them?  I’ll take my answer off the air.  Don’t have a lifetime to wait…[/quote]

I don't do anything for your kids  as I am not their parent, MCPS employee, babysitter or anything else.  I am a parent tired of complainers.  I have a child who had some SN and we dealt with it.  If you wait for MCPS to deal with it, you will be waiting a long time..  These kids are YOUR kids.  Stop trying to dump them off on someone else.   [/quote]
