[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with OP Can we just jettison Takoma Park/Silver Spring so they can form their social justice commune and the rest of us govern ourselves like adults?[/quote]theres a revolt in NP. People really upset in the increase in home invasions and burglaries particularly Asians and Indians really upset that county is so pro criminal [/quote] What are you babbling about? I'm Asian Indian and do not consider the county to be "procriminal." Speak for yourself. [/quote] Ignoring the issue of whether or not the county is pro-criminal, do you have kids in MCPS or do they go to a private school? Many of the Asian families we know are so frustrated with MCPS. The Super and the BOE are almost openly hostile towards Asian families. Plus, they are discouraged by the poor school performance, lack of consistent curriculum, and the non-existent discipline policies. The Code of Conduct is a joke and the focus on restorative justice practices in schools has led to an enormous increase in terrible behavior with zero consequences. Kids learn early on that they can get away with bad behavior and it gets worse and worse. Maybe if your kids are in MCPS, they are in a school with a high number of Asian students? Those tend to perform better statistically. My kids’ HS stats recently showed that only 23% of its students graduated meeting UMD entrance requirements. That is horrendous! And yet, no communication from McPS leadership as to how they will try to improve this. Instead, MCPS focuses on holding multiple random forums no all sorts of ridiculous topics and wants to spend millions of dollars converting restrooms so that they are mixed-gender. My kids’ Focus ES can’t even provide glue sticks and half the Chromebooks don’t work. Priorities are completely out of whack in MCPS. [/quote]
