[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They may not add additional staff, but they won’t cut the program, which is perfectly sized and very well run. Sorry PP, it’s here to stay and annoy you.[/quote]

It’s not perfectly sized if there’s an waiting list. Why are so many families languishing on the waiting list while those who are in VA brag about small classes and individual attention? Seems like there’s room to accept more.[/quote]

The classes are the same as in person and there have been multiple reductions in staffing.  It doesn't make sense to reduce staff when there is a waitlist and the program could serve more students.[/quote]

When there's a budget crisis, of course it makes sense to reduce unnecessary staff. It is cheaper to educate kids in their homeschools than to add VA staff.[/quote]

Its not cheaper and many schools are overcrowded.

There are lots of ways to reduce spending but MCPS refuses to look at unnecessary spending and has lots of wasteful spending.  Getting rid of teachers, para's, etc. is not the way to go.  If the reason to close it is kids are not preforming well, they need more staff and support, not less.  Just because a struggling child goes in person it doesn't mean they will be more successful.
