[quote=Anonymous][quote]What is your personal experience with teaching math in a diverse American public school system with 150,000 students, PP?[/quote]

I've never driven a bus before but I certainly can expect the driver not to run off the side of the road. I've never run an airline but I certainly can expect the airline not to crash 70% of the flights.

What is with some people in Montgomery County never holding anyone accountable for performance? Pepco gets a free pass to provide the worst service in the nation and MCPS can fail at teaching math but get a pass because you think its hard? This is crazy.

I'm the first to support tax dollars going to education but I expect to see performance. My tax dollars should not be spent to just create a large number of jobs (20K+ jobs in MCPS) that don't perform and achieve good outcomes. The ESOL poster needs to use some logic. Math is the one subject that is less affected by language differences.

If MCPS wants to claim that its too hard to teach math in a system that is too large then MCPS should be broken up. I honestly think that this is the core problem with many MCPS issues. Its just too big to function efficiently and perform.
