[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DCPS is just getting worse and worse. And people here seem to be content to bury their heads in the sand. I remember thinking JR would be a great backup for my kids and the goal would be Walls. We literally declined a Walls spot today because I just don’t trust dcps. It’s really frightening how quickly things are degrading and how little parents seem to notice. Very subpar science curriculum, poor ELA curriculum, really below standard math offerings- and yet I see parents defending this approach over and over again. I’m genuinely t worried. [/quote]

I’m PP who asked about Amplify and am having the opposite experience re: parents defending it. With exception of ECE, most people I’ve talked to have expressed somewhere between concern, defeat, anger, and the like — they are noticing. Maybe what we need is better channels to advocate for better … I don’t know. I’m sure many have tried many things in past. Our kid is younger and we are not feeling good about this journey. We also don’t have 60k a year to seek out private school spots that may be better. [/quote]

I am in the same boat as you. I don’t know what to do. I have some time and money to spend on supplementation but I’m furious that I have to spend my time and money to do what I can to help my children. It bugs me that charter schools are my only hope and i don’t really like them either![/quote]
