[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I do think MCPS has gone very deep into many social justice/political topics in their choice of reading materials. As a contrast, I looked up the summer reading for incoming 6th graders in our old Brooklyn neighborhood. Much more innocuous than the mcps selections. [/quote] [b]They don't even have to be innocuous. How about good books? These books are being assigned precisely because of their subject matter, not because they're well written or worth reading.[/b] When i think of all the actual **literature** I read by the time I had graduated from MCPS, it just makes me want to cry. These assignments are a joke.[/quote] That school has gone off the deep end. OP, just don't have your child read it. [/quote] Wow just wow so many bigots[/quote] This is exactly how the liberals in Montgomery County shut down any opposing viewpoints. Call them bigots/racist/transphobic/etc. Never actually addressing parent concerns. It works very well because it is clear who is in charge at MCPS and the progressive liberal faction has pretty much completely overtaken this entire county and the BOE. PP, asking MCPS to avoid books like Rick as required reading does NOT make one a bigot. [/quote]
