[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is it time to break into smaller school districts in MoCo?  This pandemic has me questioning how the school system is setup in the county.  It’s gotten to big to manage.  Is it time to break it up to smaller manageable school districts within the county?  This is done in Texas, California etc.[/quote]

I agree 100%.  MCPS is too large and varied to be a single school district.  MCPS has no ability to differentiate between schools when there is a dusting of snow, so schools in Bethesda and Silver Spring have to close because there are flurries in Germantown or Poolesville, and schools in zip codes with very few COVID-19 cases have to close because there is a concentration of cases in Silver Spring and Wheaton.  I hate it.[/quote]

Arguments about snow days no longer hold water. There will be no more snow days in MCPS. If it snows anywhere in the county, there will be distance learning that day.[/quote]

No there won't be.  Give me a break.  I can't even believe that Jack Smith moron is bringing that crap up when he doesn't even have a reopening plan on the state's desk.  His priorities are idiotic.

Also, 40% are on FARM.  "Snow" days equal hunger, cold, and loneliness for them.  Most of the FARM students are down, mid and east county where there is less snow.  No need to keep 160K students home for 1/2 inch of snow in Poolesville. [/quote]
