[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is really sad that some teachers have spend so much of their own money on the classrooms. [/quote]

Well they shouldn't. MCPS reimburses them for all materials that support the curriculum. [/quote]

HAHAHAHAHAHA.[/quote]

Give me an example of where an MCPS teacher wasn't provided by their school/MCPS the materials/supplies they need for the curriculum. [/quote]
Just yesterday, I was in MS English where the class assignment called for using index cards. There were no index cards at school, so the teacher brought in a pack.[/quote]

And the proper steps are for the teacher to complete the needed paperwork to submit to the principal/school admin to get reimbursed for those index cards. [/quote]

Huh? This isn’t true. There is no money that you can request. You either purchase the materials with your own money or you do without. When I had my students start their math journals yesterday, I had them take from the supplies that their parents sent in or grab one from the pile of extras that I provide. Only 5 out of my 23 students brought a journal, the rest used the ones I purchased with my money. I got the cheap ones from Staples, but it was still my money. And I don’t have an option of getting reimbursed as my school does not have this discretionary fund you are speaking of, nor do we have a PTA. It is on me.
