[quote=Anonymous]We switched from private to MCPS and the parents never being allowed in the school and being excluded did feel very strange. At our private school there were never parents wandering the halls or hanging out in the building after drop off.

It was perfectly fine to walk your child into class if they were bringing in a lot of heavy things. If they forgot something it was fine (as long as the school and front desk was open) for them to run back and get it. MCPS has a policy that if a child leaves something behind they can not go back to get it even if they remember in the hallway.

There were opportunities for parents to sign up to read a story, tell about their career, or help out with a class party or activity. At MCPS there is a lottery to be a room parent and be allowed in for the Halloween party. At private school, everyone could sign up if they wanted to help out.

Its all very rude and sends a message that your child is in an institution not a school. I'm thankful that we have really great teachers and the PTA holds a good number of events that build community since the principal and administrators are hostile to inclusion. [/quote]
