[quote=Anonymous]I want to say that I think a lot of blame is being put on 2.0 when in reality it is the common core standards and the entire national education system.  I am a former Fairfax teacher (now MCPS parent) and they have just adopted a standards based report card and are rolling out new standards and many similar complaints are happening.  My siblings in Texas and they are having similar complaints.

There are certain trends in education that are prevalant everywhere. I actually believe that MCPS through 2.0 is making these changes better for our students than many states/counties in our country.

I remember hearing Laura Bush on Oprah once saying that she had a reality call when she once complained to her mother about how messy a classroom was (that her daughter was in) and her mother replied, "Then go help her clean it up, she is busy doing too many other things."

I took a lot away from this.  Instead of complaining, go help.  Our teachers do so much for our children everyday.[/quote]
