Strange how they shut down the mva but these are virtual.  I’m surprised families agree to this. [/quote]

Families were not given a choice. [/quote]

You can fight this.  If mcps closed the mva due to virtual being bad, and forcing families in person, they should provide it all in person.  [/quote]

MCPS shut down the MVA due to budget constraints not because it was bad.  The virtual compact math classes save money since it means hiring fewer teachers.  Families were not given a choice of if they would prefer virtual or in person compact math.  The students will be in school but stuck learning from a remote math teacher.  No parent would choose this. [/quote]

We don’t know why it was shut down.  It’s interesting the lies the boe tells.  Parents should advocate for live teaching.  [/quote]

It was shut down overall due to budget constraints, with the poor performance and low enrollment particularly at the elementary level making  MVA a low priority from a budget perspective.

And yes, I'm sure parents with kids in this situation will complain, but it is unlikely that schools will be able to do anything about it this year. The district already said they won't be removing any teachers/classrooms at tur start of the year, so more resources aren't going to magically free up.

They can’t staff all of their classes. Look at how they’re begging for a sub for the 1st grade drug dealer[/quote]

Central Office staff should step in and teach.[/quote]
