Ya think?

[quote] but the notion that ACPS's failings are entirely/mostly because of its student body makeup is ridiculous.[/quote]

I think 80% of the problem being demographics is reasonable.  20% mismanagement?

[quote] If the working environment was such that they could attract AND RETAIN talented educators,[b] it wouldn't matter if they were 50% ELL and 100% Free/reduced lunch. [/b]The one advantage ACPS had was that its pay was so much higher than FCPS, but that gap has narrowed considerably, so now there's no true incentive for a talented teacher to stay and deal with the backwards fustercluck that is ACPS (The above post calling it a banana republic was spot on).[/quote]

My sense is that the experience of just about every other jurisdiction in the country, certainly all in this region, suggests that is not not the case. [/quote]

Funny- there's an administrator at TC who openly wants to MAGA who also seems to think that the only challenge TC faces is the proliferation of ELL students. So I guess if we Build The Wall, ACPS will flourish![/quote]

Not all ELL students are undocumented.   But that is beside the point - we are not discussing federal immigration policy, but reasonable goals for ACPS.  [/quote]
