[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What's wrong with MCPS??[/quote]

My take as staff?
Here are a few reasons:
Too many superintendents in the last several years
Ineffective Board of Ed
Too top heavy—principals have been turned into puppets, mid level managers
All systems are designed to reward everything BUT ability
The background checks are lacking
They let people work who have no business being around kids, ie DUI and domestic violence issues, plus financial impropriety 
The culture and climate within the schools is pretty bad because central people keep handing down ridiculous new tasks
Principals are mid level managers, not leaders[/quote]

I truly believe you are staff, you are articulating from the inside what as a parent, I see on the outside.  It does appear to be too top heavy, I've always gotten the feeling that there were too many chiefs and not enough indians, that everything rolled down to the teachers and they are the ones that have to constantly jump through ever changing hoops.  I never had the feeling that the principal was in charge or had any autonomy.[/quote]
