[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well written article!

Looks like she is in the regional program analysis team? “… and is a member of the MCPS Opportunity Design team for the district’s ongoing regional program analysis. Her opinions do not represent the official position of the MCCPTA.”

So people in the design team is so unhappy that they need to express their concerns publicly in an article? That’s a really bad sign because it indicates her voice is not heard by the team leaders, for whatever reason.[/quote]

Are you new to MCPS?  It would be much more shocking to learn that MCPS *is* listening to and making decisions based on what their various "advisory" committees say... them ignoring it (especially on issues where they clearly have preferred outcomes) is absolutely what I would expect.  MCPS Central Office really listening to parent and community impact, even when it contradicts their own preferences, would require a major culture change.  And Taylor does not seem to be up to driving that at all.

No I'm not. I'm a long-term fighter to MCPS's ignorance to community inputs for over a decade. I'm just shocked to see from some of the responses that people now give up to fight and call others who haven't surrendered as "pure negativity". I still believe in democracy. Even though it sounds like a joke under this current administration, it's depressing to see people in the deep-blue community believes democracy never existed in its education system and will never appear.
