[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would love to know their plans when the survey is inevitably disproportionately completed by west county, white and Asian families.

Will they actually try to do outreach to the zip codes and clusters not represented? Or will they throw their hands up and claim that outreach is hard and they tried their best.

Perhaps they should have actually done a rigorous demand analysis/market analysis before they started this whole process.[/quote]

If people keep hiding for years, maybe they don't want to be found. [/quote]

MCPS hasn't ever made an attempt to "find" them.

Community organizing and outreach to busy, non-English speaking communities is inconvenient and time consuming. MCPS is lazy.

And even though many local schools have robust ways they reach out to their communities, MCPS doesn't empower them to get information about central programs or initiatives out to people.

There are literally thousands of consultants who could do better outreach than MCPS but they don't prioritize hiring them.
