It shouldn't have been tough.
Spend your summer mentally and emotionally ally preparing for 3 worse years.

How did it not support your student this year?

Mcps operates under the theory that children are adults. There is a classroom. As many students can be squeezed into that classroom as space allows. Classes are as large as some college classes. If your student is motivated, intelligent, has adult like executive functioning skills and had the social support and financial resources to take care of any short comings that prevent them from doing well- then they will do well
If not- screw you, you lazy pos!

My child had a pretty good year, but I do think you make a good point here. Part of the problem is the weakness of the MS curriculum in MCPS. So, kids go from the "low expectations, no homework" environment to HS with very little transition.

As a parent, I was struck by just how stark the transition was. Not only the workload, but also the level of independence. The random half days, for example, where the kids had to show up late on their own. For some kids, that was an easy step, but higher expectations in MS might make the transition easier.
