[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m just amazed that they continue to present in the front of the BOE and the Superintendent without basic info that anyone would ask as a follow-up.  Maybe they didn’t get the message that us in corporate got, that “Who, What, When, Where, and How/How much” are the basic components.  It’s great to have flowery language and pitch a story but if you don’t have information to back it up (particularly since presenting to a board is all about Oversight/Accountability/Approval) it’s pointless.[/quote]

This, but also the board needs to do better follow-up. I've watched a lot of board meetings, and they go like this:

MCPS staff: Long flowery story that only sort of touches on the topic of the day

BoE member: Slightly challenging question for the sake of clarity

MCPS staff: Word salad edu-speak from their mail order EdD program that does not answer the question or provide clarity at all

BoE member: Fantastic, no further questions[/quote]

Yes- mcps educator here and I can't stand not getting a direct answer to a direct question from an administrator and get the EdD word salad. [/quote]
