[quote=Anonymous]This post really smells like someone from the central office. The root cause of issues in MOCO is no secret - incompetent leadership and staff within the BOE and central office and a culture of no accountability. Starr basically flushed the system down the toilet and its unclear whether Smith is strong enough and engaged enough to plunge it back up. Even if he is, it going to smell bad for a long time.

The constant sex abuse t incidents coming out of MCPS reflect years of poor management practices that supported hiding and ignoring offenders. Some of the most vocal parents that have tried to push MCPS to implement policies that protect kids and follow best safety practices that you see in other districts come from areas outside the W schools. The curriculum disaster is entirely of MCPS own making. Teachers and parents across the county are pissed off about this. The magnet admissions debacle is entirely the central office deciding they could get away with racial profiling. Not testing for lead is entirely on MCPS. I don't remember any parents demanding lead in the drinking water. Overcrowding in some areas could easily be alleviated by allowing voluntary COSAs but the central office blocks this.

There is a pattern to all of these issues and its gross incompetence. Parents from all over the county are disgusted and fed up - not just the W parents. There are plenty of angry DCC and up county parents. Teachers have many of the same concerns that parents and students express but the principals - by direction of the central office -silence their voices. [/quote]
