[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Weast the smartest of the crew? Yikes! You mean the guy that brought us the Pearson disaster and then got a nice trip to Australia out of it? http://parentscoalitionmc.blogspot.com/2011/12/pearson-weast-timeline.html[/quote] He was the smartest of the crew. I've worked under four supts in MCPS. Weast was able to create a professional growth system that is far superior to those in other counties. (I know b/c I've been trained in the MCPS protocol and in one used in three surrounding counties.) Smith is no different; instead of developing curriculum to sell, he's purchasing canned curriculum. And he's relying upon EOS to make himself look good, too. I bet that when he retires with his fat pension, he'll be consulting for more big money. Education is a business, people. In my experiences, those in central are not teacher-friendly, [b]nor were many of them successful in the classroom[/b]. So how can we expect them to motivate tired and abused teachers? [/quote] I don't have a problem with that, per se. We're not hiring them to be teachers, we're hiring them to be superintendents. Probably most teachers would not be successful as superintendents.[/quote]
