[quote=Anonymous]Everyone who had kids in MCPS the past 5 years knows that during the pandemic, our schools were closed longer than any other school district in the nation and MCPS didn't teach all of the content (how could you with the Weds off alternating schedule for the remaining 4 days/week?). While I understand that all educators had a heavy lift during that timeframe, other local schools/districts made better decisions. Also, we all know that the 50% HW rule, plus retakes, plus astonishing grade inflation across the board, systematically removes motivation from even the most supported kids. So spare me the "technology is bad! parents don't read to their kids" lines. The issues with MCPS are waaaay bigger than home engagement. Signed, a parent (and former teacher) who hired tutors to supplement my children's MS/HS education because MCPS decided it wasn't their responsibility to teach the content, hire qualified teachers, or give responsive feedback.
