[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is my #1 hesitation about MCPS — the unsafely low teacher to student ratio at lunch and especially during recess — and is the reason we are applying for a rising K student. It’s such a shame MCPS will not allow us to fundraise for more staff the way DCPS does. The equity concern seems unfounded; parents who can afford it would foot the bill, and all children would benefit from the safer environment! Sigh… [/quote] The equity concern is across schools. If W feeders just pay for paras from parent donations, those parents won’t convince MCPS to properly staff all schools. Yes recess is chaotic. But it’s good for kids. Unsupervised play time raises test scores and lowers anxiety among kids. Significant problems are rare. [/quote]
