+1 Discrimination is real in MCPS. Discrimination on the basis of race, gender, sexual preference, and disability all thrive in MCPS. Dr. McKnight’s narrow focus with the audit ignores all the other ways MCPS discriminates and retaliates against teachers, students, and parents who complain.[/quote]

But you have to start somewhere. This doesn't mean there won't be an audit on those other issues as well in the future. [/quote]

Yes, do you start somewhere - start with the Complaints from the Public!   Idiot.[/quote]

As a person who has tried the BS Complaint From the Public Process, it’s a process that goes no where. I once thought, by documenting Civil Rights violations within MCPS then perhaps someone would see the problem and fix it. Nope - not the principal and every appeal step up to the superintendent and the Board itself. There’s a culture of circling the wagon, deny an issue is a problem, then launch a very organized plan to retaliate for the complaint.

Only idiots file a Complaint From the Public with MCPS. For Discrimination and Retaliation you file with the US Department of Education Office of Civil Rights. They have an intake form online or you email them your complaint with the required parts. Simple, easy, doesn’t take an attorney, and it’s an outside agency that will provide an unbiased investigation. You just have to file within 180 days of the discrimination and/or retaliation (another reason to not waste valuable time with the lengthy Complaint From the Public process).

Many parents and teachers have figured out the need to file complaints outside of MCPS as indicated by data on OCRs website. Many of the current investigations were filed under Dr. McKnight’s interim superintendent position. Currently, there are 10 open investigations for retaliation and complaints in every protected class category.

Discrimination is discrimination. MCPS has a discrimination and retaliation problem that the audit won’t solve. The MCPS corporate culture that refuses to fix problems is where MCPS should start.  [/quote]
