[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But isn’t MCPS funded with our taxes? Can we not lobby? Can we not vote out representatives? Can the state congress not mandate the Dept. of the education to do more and assign a budget? Can we not protest? [/quote]

+1000 Are there well connected parents at Whitman that like to lobby for an independent IG for employee misconduct and sexual abuse within MCPS.  MCPS’s approach to not respond when teachers/coaches are violating the Employee Code of Conduct gives predators free reign to work in the school system. Even worse is when MCPS does their own investigations of sexual abuse and assault BEFORE the police.

MCPS and the Board (who both are advised by the MCPS General Counsel Office) has no neutral third party or mechanism to investigate employee misconduct.  Their methodology anytime a complaint from the public is filed is to circle the wagons around their employee.  Case history of MCPS child predators are riddled with examples of MCPS knowing of complaints of predatory behavior before the police arrest for sexual abuse occurs.

The Employee Code of Conduct was written to protect children from abuse by people who work for MCPS. It’s negligent to knowingly not enforce it.[/quote]
