[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The current state of MCPS would actually be fine if it didn’t cost 3 billion plus a YEAR and much of it in things that don’t affect current classroom - defined (overly generous) pensions and (overly generous) healthcare, largely for their retirees. I think if this place offered the same (low) quality of school at 1/2 property tax DCUM wouldn’t like the ego hit but would be fine with it — because they would have more money for Larlo’s supplementation.[/quote]

I hate how teachers and retired teachers insist on compensation and health insurance coverage. The nerve of 'em!

Again your response proves my point…entitled teachers are defensive when you even question the expense of public schools.  If MCPS teachers delivered Massachusetts public school results may not question the expense of these benefits but they don’t, not by a long shot…[/quote]

Massachusetts has independent town based school districts. Not county wide districts like MD. It is apples and oranges. You really can't compare the two states or school districts within each state.[/quote]

Town based school districts are SO much better.  MCPS is simply too large to meet the needs of its students.  [/quote]
So long as your town is wealthy. "I got mine! So there!"[/quote]

Really?  Lower-income students in MA perform better when compared to lower-income students in MD.  How do you explain that?

A small, well run school district is simply much better than a large, ineffective one any day.  It doesn’t have to do with being wealthy.  [/quote]

Maybe they have more lower income Asians than we do.[/quote]

DCUM never misses a chance to be bigoted.[/quote]
