I don't think there was an additional meeting apart from the June 12 and 13th about Functions. I wasn't interested for my kid so I did not attend the meetings. We are also coming from outside MCPS but I do receive Mr. Ostrander's emails.

Adding, the email about the functions meetings was titled, “No Factoring Camp Summer Program & Math Options” and was sent on 6/5.

There was a zoom call offered on June 12 and 13 to provide details on functions and how to get into it, and what type of student it was right for. He emailed details in advance but said that if you couldn’t attend either date he’d send all the info by email. Which he did. Nothing else. If you got the email with the info about functions you almost certainly got the announcement about the zoom too.

We got an email dated June 20 about the functions class, and in it Mr. Ostrander mentions parent meetings ‘last week.’ I’m not sure if this refers to random one-on-one parent meetings he’s had, or if our family missed a communication about a meeting for all parents.

Thanks for any information!


I just re-read the email and see what you are talking about. We did not hear about a parents' meeting, but our child is coming from private school, so not sure if there were MCPS communications we missed. Would love to hear from any parents if there was a meeting last week.
