[quote=Anonymous]Howard is better for many reasons. in HoCo teacher grade the work. In MCPS they really don't. There is so much pressure to inflate grades and spend time collecting other data that MCPS teachers just don't grade anymore. Grading is an important learning tool to give students information on what they do not know and need to revisit before a final test. MCPS doesn't even give finals. Tracking -Howard county has more logical, flexible tracking. This allows teachers to teach to the level of the student not go way over their heads or bore them to death. Kids can actually so better when they are in peer groups within the same range and they are learning together. MCPS throws kids who have a 2-3 year grade level gap into the same classroom, over crowds the classroom, and gives the poor teacher an inflexible curriculum expecting that he or she will just work it all out.
