DCUM is always looking to aim slings and arrows at Dr McKnight.

Dr. Floyd-Cooper had just been promoted to associate superintendent 8 months ago, after being hired by MCPS in 2020. Now she'll become a director at the Wallace Foundation.


Oh good, she’s “deeply committed to equity”.
#1 requirement for our public schools

That totally explains why MCPS are doing so well.

I'd consider it a good thing to never hear from your principal's supervisor.

I certainly never heard of this one. My school seems to have an adversarial relationship with central office so I try to avoid being on the list of classrooms visited when the bigwigs observe for the day.

LOL dang. I guess MCPS was too much of a disaster for her to stick around for even a year.
