[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]What platform? What languages? Is the translation certified as accurate? Does it comply with federal law? [/quote] I want to double back to this post because it illustrates something really important about the debate: 1) Many folks discussing this issue are either coming from outside MCPS or have not paid a single second of attention to politics at any level before two months ago; 2) Because of that ignorance, they seem to have a high level of faith in the Donald J. Trump Department of Justice is going to save them from a boundary revision; 3) This is the same presidential administration that advanced an Executive Order to rescind any directives that would make government services accessible to folks with limited English; 4) I would almost feel badly for them, because they are clearly so clueless about how MCPS works, how local/state politics work, and whether a white supremacist federal government sees them as worth advocating for. But I don't. [/quote] No worries. The State Board of Education is having no trouble smacking down Taylor. [/quote] Neither does the Supreme Court. Taylor’s problem is that it appears that he allows his ego, or those of his political masters, control how MCPS acts, rather than what’s in the best interest of students and their families. In the Mahmoud case, which I’m not going to rehash here, Taylor had an easy, low cost way to resolve that case. Instead, he chose to fight all the way to the Supreme Court. Likewise, Taylor could have rescinded the EV bus contract and reissued it in a less questionable way that still achieved the desired outcome.[/quote]
