[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, I think the whole this is one self serving mess.

I think the SB makes decisions that are almost completely self serving and political in nature, doing things that will help them move up in the political system (moving to local and state gov't positions), these usually do not align with putting children first.  I think Reid is the tool that they use to do these things.

I think gatehouse is full of people trying to justify their high pay and job titles.  They are constantly reinventing school policies to keep themselves employed, which usually does not align with putting children first.

I think the schools are full of Principals that want to move up the FCPS hierarchy, and create local policies that will make themselves look good so that they can beef up their resume to move on to gatehouse.

And I think there are teachers that are tired of all of the self serving nonsense that is being put in place by the people who are in charge and have checked out.[/quote]

I think this is true.  My son has had some teachers that truly care for him,  but overall the system sucks.  Some of that is FCPS and some of that is public school.  There is was to much happening in the public schools that is not related to academics or setting our kids up for success.  Get the behavior problems out of school.  Stop with the surveys and the WAY too many hours on mental health.
Let’s address special ed in creative ways.

No I don’t think the system cares at all about individuals.[/quote]
