[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And people seem to agree - MV (both campuses) has stabilized, right? [/quote]

NBA was never unstable. Yes there was some turnover right after the pandemic with teachers, but that was everywhere.

It just got associated with all the drama at MVP, of which none was at MV8[/quote]

I don't think MV8 was unstable, it was just new and that makes people cautious. And since it is part of MV and ultimately operated by the same top leadership, any concerns about MVP are going to cause concern about MV8. You can't operate one school that's a hot mess and not raise that question about other sites.

MVP is I guess "stable" in the sense that it's not getting worse, but its stats are still not good compared to MV8 and DCB. Looking at DC School Report Card compare function.

Kudos to MV in making these available at all, even though it took a bit of digging to find them.

PP here yes it was the same ED at the top but each school has their own principal and leadership team and ran their own campus.

Some people may not have liked the old ED because of some things but to be fair, she did an amazing job when it came to the business and management side of the organization.  The school was also very transparent at the board meetings and parents were always notified about them and could zoom in.  Slides made public, etc..such as above.

She did have the best interest of the school and her organizational skills and understanding the big picture was top notch.  I say this as someone who is in a leadership position and understand what it takes to run things.  I am also a parent so saw both sides of the picture. Sure I did not agree with some decisions but it doesn’t diminish all the accomplishments she had growing the school from a basement to where it is today.

Anyway, the new ED is a parent with kids at the school and looks promising.  Only time will tell.[/quote]

So what accounts for the low test scores at MVP? And "some people may not have liked" the old ED doesn't really explain why parents felt the need to picket on the sidewalk outside.[/quote]
