I disagree completely.

I am not White, and live in Silver Spring.  My kids attend a Focus school, and I would love it if MCPS adopted at town-based, or cluster based school system, instead of the monstrosity that currently exists.

I would love it if my kids' schools didn't close for rain, just because it's snowing up in Poolesville or Damascus.  I would love it if we weren't forced to administer ridiculous assessments that the school system deems necessary (eg. Performance Matters), even there is not really any direct benefit to our students.  I would love it if our Principal had more power when it comes to matters of discipline.

For the 8 years we have had kids in MCPS, a Superintendent has NOT ONCE stepped foot in our ES/MS.  We have never seen a BOE member.

If we want something to change, or disagree with a policy, parents have to vie for 3 minutes of the BOE's attention at a meeting, and then we're most likely ignored anyway.

Schools should be part of the community, and run by the community.  [/quote]

Yes, I love it when angry white people oppress me too![/quote]
