[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe it is this nitpicking and inability to deal with reality that has blessed the NEC and DCC with the lousy schools.  It is obvious, that many of you are happy with a DCC and NEC education.  Tell the County Council you are happy and let those who want a better education in the DCC and NEC have their say as well.

Why do you assume it is nitpicking? There are plenty of problems in MCPS. There are also plenty of entitled parents -- possibly even in the NEC and DCC -- who believe that MCPS should do what they want MCPS to do, because they want MCPS to do it.

(And I'm pretty sure that the results you're citing for the NEC and DCC are not caused by nitpicking and an inability to deal with reality, but rather with economic residential segregation plus increasing poverty rates in Montgomery County.)[/quote]

Just to be clear - some of the issues were very serious, by anyone's standards.  If it makes you feel better, tell yourself it's just entitled parents who walk away.  [/quote]

It doesn't make me feel better or worse. The point is: without more information, it's impossible to tell whether it's serious issues or entitled parents.[/quote]

We should be on the same team, but instead you're all geared up to knock me down in case you judge my issue to not be serious enough in your book.   This feels like just the type of exchange, albeit with more BOE meetings and paperwork involved, we came to expect from MCPS bureaucracy.   I'm so glad we got out.[/quote]
