I’m surprised that MCPS is leaving this in the hands of parents, in some ways.

Our ES can’t even use PTA funds to hire extra aides, etc because it is not ‘equitable’.  Yet, the difference between a parent-sponsored prom in Potomac and a parent-sponsored prom in Wheaton are likely very different.

MCPS doesn’t have concerns about the Equity?  Or Inequity in this case, where wealthier schools will sponsor a prom, but lower-income schools will not be able to?[/quote]

The point is that it's not the wealthier [u]schools[/u] sponsoring a prom.

Also, there's no such thing as a "parent-sponsored prom", in my opinion. If it's not a school-sponsored event, then it's not a prom, it's just a party with formalwear.[/quote]

Who really cares?  Funny thing is its the same parents who are complaining about school not in person and pretending lots of damage has been done via online learning.  They are raising spoiled, entitled kids who are taught only to think about themselves.  We are in a health pandemic.  These things are what is fueling COVID right now.[/quote]
