[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Make no mistake, MCPS talks a big game about equity but they cave a lot to the squeakiest wheels which are wealthy white parents.[/quote] This is hysterical [NOT], as my children are at a W, and we get ignored by MCPS and the BOE. They cave to everything for TP/SS. If we want something done, we have to fund it ourselves, which are fortunate to be able to do. But it has nothing to do with MCPS caving to us, and everything to do with parents spending money on things that should have been provided. [/quote] What do they cave to for "TP/SS"? Yes, MCPS is required to use Title I dollars for Title I schools. It also receives additional funding from the state based on FARMS, ESOL and special education enrollment, much (but not all of which) goes to serve those students, because those students have additional needs that our policymakers have decided to provide some funding for. Are you begrudging those programs? Or what else is "TP/SS" getting that your "W" is not? [/quote]
