[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My favorite was Essie McGuire - when asked about the continued necessity of the regional model being linked with the boundary study since there is declining enrollment, I got the impression that she was making it up on the spot. Even said that because there is declining enrollment, this is even more reason to keep the regional model going with the boundary study.

I was thinking that with declining enrollment, the spaces in the schools will open up, so there is no longer the urgent need to force the regional model prematurely. AKA the regional model can be separated from the boundary study.

My 2nd favorite was with a different person from Program Analysis (regional model) team - I mentioned that they are asking current 7th grade families to commit blind to these programs since they will be building them out year-over-year, only one year at a time. The answer was we will have a plan. Left unsaid was anything about actual implementation - like getting programs staffed with teachers, never mind getting teachers who can actually teach the program content.

The year-by-year thing their party line and they're wedded to it.

[b]I was recently in at a meeting with parents and Taylor and he talked about that approach. I said, "As a parent, I wouldn't put my kid in a program that wasn't complete." He snapped, "Then don't put you kid in it." [/b]

All I could thin was, No, problem, my dude. My kids and I are happy to steer clear of your half baked plans. [/quote]

Wow! What an absolute jerk! Hopefully more people in MoCo are now realizing how much of a nice guy act he's been putting for so long now....[/quote]

We can't get rid of Taylor fast enough.[/quote]

I have seen no signs so far that the Board is unhappy enough with him to consider terminating his contract early.[/quote]

Yes, we are going to wait until everything is torn apart and Frankensteined back together, when the system collapses, before we get rid of him. He will probably tear out of here himself, just before the collapse. He'll accept a teaching position at UVA, which turns out to have DOGE-like qualities. Taylor will fit right in.[/quote]
