[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone else just sick at the sheer amount of parent involvement required to make improvements in MCPS or to aid your children's education? I mean, ignorance is bliss, but it is tough to ignore the ridiculous class sizes, erroneous worksheet materials, and class schedules consisting of only math and reading 3 hours a day. I'd like to take that "Oh well, at least he's learning something and has good friends" approach but it's all relative in the real world. Learning something.... [/quote] Yep, more than sick. I laugh when people insist it's a good school system. [b]Good school systems are largely in small towns. [/b]We have a bloated bureaucracy trying to serve too many disparate groups. Our kids are now in private, and we're struggling, but it's worth it. [/quote] Small, wealthy towns, that is. Not small, poor towns, though.[/quote] Exactly. So what do you think the affluent do when school systems decline? They leave. So would MCPS be better off if the top part of the tax base left? Cuz that's what's been happening...and this is why we had a real estate tax increase. [/quote]
