[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I believe there Title 1 schools that have after school tutoring programs run by other entities (Aspire/ACH). Unfortunately APS blew its pandemic funding on virtual school program. It should have gone directly to parents to find interventionists/tutors on their own. What APS did with its pandemic $ seems criminal. I hope they are investigated. [/quote]

Oh good lord, this again? Just because you disagree with the use of the funds hardly makes it criminal. And you think the funds should have gone directly to you instead? Sorry, I don't think so. [/quote]

FCPS is reimbursing parents for compensatory services parents had to pay for during closed school.  So...not a far fetched idea really that parents should have been able to use on tutoring etc. when APS used more than half their ARP funds on a tiny minority of students that ended up being so bad and ineffective they closed the program completely.[/quote]
APS has only six math interventionists to work with struggling kids. They need to hire a lot more. Redirect some of the math coaches' time from working with teachers to working with students. Provide double math class time in elementary (temporarily poaching time from less critical subjects). Ask parents to come in across APS to assist classroom teachers. Anything that gets struggling kids the additional time and help they need. The last three options don't involve cost; they are doable. [/quote]
