[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why don't we move all the high level classes from your school to put them at schools that have much less, and you see how your kids feel when they don't have access to the classes they want.[/quote]

The new plan seeks to ensure that the same core set of advanced classes are offered at every single high school in the county. That is a good thing. We should all work together to make sure MCPS actually delivers, and maybe exceeds?, on this instead endless and pointless fighting. [/quote]

Clearly you aren't paying attention.  Those core classes are the basic classe all schools aready have so saying that is a joke.  And, those classes are not equal to what is at your school.  So, by your arguement, we should cut out all classes except those core classes and everyone will be happy?[/quote]

Maybe there are certain classes that should be added to the core set? That is fine. Let's do it. More investment in advanced classes at every school will serve the most kids. It doesn't have to be us v them[/quote]

In order to make that happen, funding has to come from somewhere, so is your school willing to give up classes so other schools can offer them?[/quote]

That’s not how it works. Teachers interview for positions. Principals are able to use their allocations as needed. Lobby your principal for specific classes. It has nothing to do with other schools needing to give up classes.[/quote]

Ok, been there done that.  Principal says no.   So, what is your recommendation.   [/quote]
