[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Message went out about the Blair meeting on Monday.  Sounds like they are going to try hard to avoid what happened at Kennedy and keep people from asking questions and sharing concerns in a large group.  Any thoughts on how to make sure we can still be heard?

"We’ve designed these meetings so every family can get clear, useful information—no matter
where you are in the process. MCPS staff will be stationed throughout the space to answer your
questions—whether you’re just learning the basics or have specific questions about boundaries,
secondary program pathways, middle school options, or how potential changes may affect your
school. You will also see a video message from Superintendent Taylor, and staff will help guide
conversations and connect you with the information you need. These sessions are structured for
purposeful engagement so every voice is heard and every participant receives support."[/quote]

I'm not bothered by attempts to limit sharing thoughts in a large group.  That process is often inefficient and leads to certain voices drowning out others.  They can still get feedback in smaller groups.[/quote]
+100000 This format is designed to not allow stakeholder input in the proposal. It’s only to answer questions.

Stakeholders in this meeting will not be actively involved in the development of the proposed model, but instead will passively learn about MCPS’s proposed model.[/quote]
