[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OMG! Enough already with the posts from disgruntled parents of CES students! You have no idea how good you have it! Even if your child only gets 2 years of a magnet, your child has more than most! Try being the parent of a SN kid in MCPS. SN kids are only entitled to access the curriculum. I have no right to ask for anything more than for him to meet artificially low benchmarks. They do not have the right to the “best education”. And “average kids” get the same one size fits all approach even when they might benefit from a different approach or more challenge in a specific subject. There’s a thing called a budget. We are all tax payers and your child doesn’t deserve more than my child or a minority child.

For those whining about racism, this is not about racism. Maybe economic disaparity but not race. Children in those communities have every right to the same challenging education as your child. Many will not have a peer group at their home school. Many will not have parents with resources to challenge them if its not being done at school. Check your privilege! Your kids do have a peer group at Hoover and Cabin John. If you don’t like it, move to Silver Spring. [/quote]

Splitting the school system implies people are tired of the consequence of the ineffective efforts of reducing achievement gap by MCPS. Because of the political rightness, people dare not say it.  the policies MCPS has implemented in recent years such as 2.0, grading system, etc have negatively influenced the normal performer students. Each individual kid only has one chance to be at ES and MS in their life. Why they should be selected as guinea pigs? If the large school system is splitter into two, so different school policies can be applied to different schools whatever they fit. And it will give MCPS more room to consider more extreme policies.[/quote]
