[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well over half are either in ESOL or are Hispanic https://wtop.com/montgomery-county/2019/07/montgomery-co-public-schools-have-a-dropout-problem-heres-why/[/quote]

Well I guest the response to this topic says it: who cares?

I am not being sarcastic. I truly believe that if these students and/or their families do not care, others should not (yes, SHOULD not - or at least PUBLIC RESOURCES should not be used to deal with this).[/quote]

The economy cares. We have a public education system for economic reasons. It's better for the economy to have an educated workforce. [/quote]

Well, it appears that the education system isn’t working very well.  If the dropout rate is increasing and the percentage of students who are ‘proficient’ is decreasing.

So, focus on educating the kids.  Leave the social services to private organizations, like non-profits and churches.  [/quote]

If you want to argue that it's not appropriate for the government to provide for the general welfare, please take it to the politics forum.

Why?  Because you disagree with me?

If you want to argue that MCPS needs to provide free food, free tutoring, free backpacks and other free social services for illegal immigrants because they are likely to drop out otherwise, then it is an appropriate discussion for the MCPS forum.  [/quote]
