[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]MCPS is mediocre. I agree with the daycare comment. In 2.0 my kids are now just starting to do in 3 rd grade what they did in private K. My 1st grader is doing stuff that he had in his Montessori classroom for the 3 yr olds.

Common core is simply a standard. The dumbing down of the curriculum is MCPS. MCPS hired a company called Pearson to develop their curriculum. Pearson did this with the intent to sell it to other school districts. The contract includes requirements that MCPS officials promote Pearson's 2.0 to other districts. he curriculum may be a step up in Arkansas but its a HUGE step down for this area.

Starr is too arrogant to admit ever making a mistake and too incompetent to do anything else about it. It appears that he is hunting for a new gig so he has no incentive to fix anything. Either he will leave or the BOE will have to toss him after another round of dropping test scores. [/quote]

+1  Those touting Common Core as national really need to do there research.  MCPS is the one who dumbed it down, eliminated most acceraltion, got ride of unit testing and has turned it into a curriculm aimed at the bottom.  [/quote]
