FCPS mom here and during Covid, BTSN were virtual.

It’s tough to go back and fight traffic, find parking and then go to each class to listen to six teachers speak for 8 minutes and leave feeling like it’s all worthwhile.

I’ve posted often in FCPS threads but my new pro tip is skip BTSN. The more I think about this, the more I believe it’s a relic. ES - sure I get it but MS and HS? Unnecessary.

Stop being lazy. Don’t you want to see your kids classrooms and get a sense of the actual environment?


What their classrooms looks like has zero value on the education they are receiving. I attend other worthwhile events at the high school, so nah...BTSN is definitely not indicative of good parenting, but nice try. I'm super glad it makes you feel superior though!


+1
That PP needs to get a sense of the actual environment…I’m still laughing at that.
