[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not surprised, but it's still sad, especially when you're in the Downcounty Consortium and can't really afford to move elsewhere (nor do I really want to). I just want my DC to have classes where the students are more engaged and want to learn and fewer resources must diverted to fights, ESOL and just trying to get the kids to pay attention. My DC will graduate in 2 years with a decent enough education, but it probably would have been far different in a W school or another with higher SES.

MoCo is too bleeding heart liberal to do anything sensical. Look for further tax increases and bussing kids all over to force segregation of income (or should we say govt aid recipients).  Nevermind that chapter 220 failed miserably, Starr will give it a shot.  Thanks to all those in the county that (a) work and (b) pay taxes. Keep it up!  Kumbaya![/quote]
