[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]MCPS doesn't need more money. It needs accountability and to work within the budget it has. Declining test scores, many students not getting what they need, poor treatment of staff, etc.. MCPS should go under recievershipi via the courts like DC did at one point.[/quote] Agree with the accountability, but the effortlessness with which particularly tax-averse folks toss around "they don't need more money for schools" trope is laughable in the face of all of that which has been explained as driving cost increases. And those low test scores (which have a lot to do with the factors driving up costs in the first place) -- are we supposed to believe that taking away funding/resources will make them go up instead of further down?
