[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How can you be so certain that you know more than the anonymous "administrator" PP spoke to.  Unless..Starr is that you??[/quote]

Because I am in the system and have been present at meetings about this.

I'm not going to say more than that.[/quote]

Yes, please MCPS staffer, continue to meet in private and continue to provide no transparency or information to the parents whose taxes pay your salary.  That's great.  No reason to keep parents in the loop or to provide clear information (so that parents can plan for the needs of their children).  Please, continue to keep us in the dark for as long as possible.  Maybe you can even change the plan right b/f the start of the school year and really keep us pesky parents twisting in the wind.  After all, this is just the education of our children we're talking about here, right.

I'd love to think that [b]your info is correct and that we could count on it--but the fact that MCPS hasn't shared anything specific and definitive with parents on this topic makes me suspicious. [/b] I'm suspicious that plans will change or that political agendas will get in the way. The lesson of MCPS so far is "don't believe it until you see it" --and even then, it might change.  if only this was a student centered model (or if the student body had a representative (almost like a union rep for the kids), maybe parents would trust MCPS more.  That's my 2 cents.[/quote]

I didn't say there was a plan.  I don't know of a plan.  PP said that 2.0 *will* be implemented in the Center program - what I know is that this has not been decided.  That's all I know.

I am not being secretive.  I'm correcting PP's statement about 2.0 being planned for the Center program, which has not been decided.[/quote]
