[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kids of Black African immigrants are doing well in MCPS.  They are accepted by top colleges and become the post child for diversity.  I wonder if MCPS knows the different between a kid from Africa immigrant family and a kid from a black family who has been here for generation.
50% hispanic are white, and many of them came from well educated and two parents family.  Those kids have nothing in common with the poor central american migrants.  
Why not focusing on EACH student?  If a student progresses too slow, wotk with him/her.  You cannot expect a 5th grade student with 2nd grade knowledge to reach the 5th bench mark within one year.  I would like see any center office admin to work as a classroom teacher for a year and make the magic happen.  [/quote]

You're right.  But MCPS refuses to fail kids.  So many never become resilient or resourceful.

And I've said this many many times. Make it mandatory for every central office professional (with a teaching cert) to teach at least ONE class.  same goes for school admin - one class, but a difficult one!

You'd see people either retiring very quickly or looking for another profession!  [/quote]
