[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is going on with FCPS this week?  Between the bus kidnapping headlines and now this, it seems like Sup Reid needs to get better control of her district!

I don't love Reid or really any super we've had.... but how can she control people's actions. [/quote]

I do not blame Reid either.  But only because she is new.

There is an insular culture in parts of FCPS.  There are some schools in FCPS where the needs of the adults are primary and the needs of the students are a distant second.  It comes out in benign ways - scheduling of recess, lunch, etc and in some terrible ways such as looking the other way when teachers and staff are cruel to children.

Special education staff shortages and the pressures of learning loss have made many classrooms frankly unsafe for children who cannot effectively self-advocate.  6 or 7 cases of abuse is indicative of a larger problem.

I find it interesting that the staff member at Madison who called the police on the special education teacher was a custodian.  This was also the case in another special education abuse case this school year.  Custodians might be somewhat outside of the gossiping and scratching each other's backs that goes on in many schools.  [/quote]
