[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I mean, traditional educational approaches are also more effective for well-rested, well-fed, emotionally and financially secure kids with well-educated parents.

We don't cancel traditional instruction because it works better for some kids than others - we provide traditional instruction AND work to reach those other kids, which is what MCPS could do if they were engaged in forward and proactive planning. [/quote]

Apparently what we do, four days into an unprecedented and likely economy-collapsing response to a viral pandemic, is complain that MCPS isn't already doing everything. DCUM's gonna DCUM.[/quote]

[b]It really is unbelievable, isn't it? Within 2 weeks, the economy has fallen apart, unemployment is skyrocketing, businesses are all shut, hospitals are running out of supplies, every step outside the front door has to be assessed for risk, and on DCUM people are complaining that MCPS hasn't instantly figured out every single issue to flip their entire model and meet the needs of all 160,000 students, by somehow knowing exactly how to plan for an event that no one on this earth has experienced in their lifetime, or their parents'. Because their neighbor's 250-student private school with no IEPs and no FARMS got it done, and it's exactly the same! Jeez Louise.[/b] [/quote]
Well said. 
And as we can see, many of those bitching about MCPS are private schools parents [/quote]
