[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Having worked closely with some of the people mentioned here, I have to agree with others that Lang is one of the more decent folks in central office, and Jack Smith is doing his best to 'do the right thing,' which has been a major flaw in past Superintendents. The guy walks the walk - first in his family to go to college, adopted special needs kids from war-torn country, etc - as opposed to Starr who waltzed out of Harvard into Bethesda. That said, I'm not sure why Discovery - a massively corrupt, money-grubbing corporate institution, but that's another post (just look what their formerly high-brow programming is becoming) is designing curriculum at all or why they couldn't just go with a bid from another company after theirs was recused.[/quote] If you've worked with people mentioned in the article, then you shouldn't have questions about Discovery's need to design curriculum. Discovery = MCPS 2.0 Decent or not, there was overlap among dates "courted," the audit process, and RFPs submitted. It's probably lack of business savvy, ignorance in such matters - and not necessarily a purposeful unethical breach.[/quote]
