[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We're in MCPS and their central office emails are also never abut academics.[/quote] The central office is sending emails to all families from preK-12--information about academics that is meaningfully targeted to the level of the student make more sense to come from the teacher primarily, the school occasionally.[/quote] This. How exactly are they supposed to send a brief, readable but relevant email about academics that covers everything from preK-12?[/quote] +1000 The lack of critical thinking skills of some posters is fascinating. Emails about academics should come from your kid’s teacher. [/quote] It's not hard, you talk about recent policy changes or funding that will improve outcomes. You tout academic victories. Anything else frames the view that academics aren't the priority.[/quote] I saw several announcements - one directly from our school and another from FCPS communications - about the recent National Merit Semifinalists. The condition that enable some kids to succeed academically may differ from those necessary for others. You won't convince most that your demand for a laser-like focus on academics is anything other than resentment that FCPS pays attention to the needs of anyone other than the kids who fit the profile of your children. [/quote] It's not resentment. I want ALL kids to get a high quality rigorous education that best suits their needs. Anything else is a distraction. [/quote] Get a life. [/quote]
