[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FCPS spent their time and resources focusing on the wrong priorities. As a school system, they should focus on education. It took FCPS 4 weeks to get distance learning up and running, poorly, but only a few days to get their meal distribution up and running.  I have received infinitely more communication regarding meal distribution than distance learning. Let the food banks feed the kids. The school system needs to focus on educating the kids. [/quote]
That's a very misguided comment. It's not an either/or situation. Kudos to them for getting the food distribution up and running. That's important for a lot of families and it is their responsibility. Getting that right has nothing to do with the horrible execution of distance learning.

For you to say, "let the kids starve...just get the online education working" is selfish and quite idiotic. Also, you need to take some initiative to provide educational resources to your own kids. I hope you weren't waiting over a month for the distance learning to start before engaging your kids in educational activities. [/quote]

No, it is not the school system’s responsibility to feed the needy breakfast and lunch, or at least it shouldn’t be.  It is, however, the responsibility of the public school system to educate the children that reside within its boundaries. That’s why people pay the exorbitant property taxes required to reside in Fairfax County. [/quote]

I don't think you need to focus on FCPS feeding the needy.  The other jurisdictions that are doing distance learning are also feeding the needed.  FCPS has enough personnel to do both.  They have just been incompetent with the education part.[/quote]
