[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One of the main problems in MCPS is the bureaucratic administration verbiage used to really say nothing.  Admit there are problems and come up with a plan to fix them.  Be open, honest, and demonstrate integrity.  Plane and simple.  Thinking you can spin issues by using BS words that mean nothing really only makes MCPS look dishonest and incompetent.  I've come across this problem in the Special Ed processes, in meetings with school administrators, and presentations to PTA.  [/quote]

I’m a parent and I see this and have heard teachers complaining about the same.

Huge lack of accountability.

I do think a lot of this comes from MCPS just being TOO big.  We come from a school system that was run by towns and it was so much easier to make change.  Easier to make your voice heard.  Much more difficult in this horribly large and beauracratic mess that is MCPS.[/quote]

LOL - I had a conversation last semester with the Director for our school and she went off in the Central Office BS speak so I pleasantly said, "I'm sorry, but I really don't understand what you just said.  Can you rephrase with specific examples of how you are solving the problem?"  She looked at me like I had two heads and just restated the same exact same string of words.  I don't even think she knew what she was saying.  She was just in robot mode based on something someone above her probably told her to say but she didn't ask for clarity so she had none to give me.
