[quote=Anonymous][quote] DC is a good example where the vaulted JLKM ES schools only receive half the funding and staff allocation of the poorer schools. DC allows parents to fundraise to replace those staff so you still see 2 teachers in a room of 24 Kindergarteners rather than 1 teacher for 24 Kindergartens in MCPS. [/quote] [quote]This one really bugs me. I'm OK with more central resources going away from the wealthier schools and into the poor schools. I don't think its ethical though that MCPS disallows parents from fundraising to achieve equal ratios. They could have a rule that parents can't fundraise to provide resources that exceed a Title 1 school but there is something wrong with requiring that wealthier schools have larger classes despite other options.[/quote] Does anyone know why MCPS will not allow fundraising to pay to equal out teacher ratios in school's with the larger classes? Doesn't make sense to disallow this. [/quote]
