[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Elementary MCPS teacher here.  We can't hold meeting between 11:00 and 1:00 because that is the time for students to pick up food.

We are working so hard to make this work for everyone.  It is exhausting on this end, too.[/quote]

This is just another example of how it will be impossible to make this work for everyone in such a large school system.

MCPS is simply too large an diverse to meet the needs of all kids.  It’s just too big to run effectively.

Smaller districts (town-based) and private schools have had a much easier time implementing distance learning an have been doing so for weeks.  This will be incredibly difficult to do in any meaningful way, in MCPS.[/quote]

In terms of real-world effect, this is pretty much the same as saying, "Denver is simply at a too-high altitude to have an atmosphere that provides enough oxygen for everybody. Places at lower altitudes have a much easier time doing that. It's incredibly difficult to do that in Denver."[/quote]

Nope.  It’s the same as saying that Denver is at a high altitude and we need to make some changes in how we bake a cake, in order to bake that cake effectively.

MCPS is too large, and it would benefit all students if it was divided up into smaller, more manageable chunks.  If things are not working well, you try to change things so that the system works more efficiently and productively.  [/quote]
