At least one of his four kids goes to public school, so he can validly say he's an MCPS parent.
Wait! Really? We've been haranguing him for years and we were wrong?
Why let facts stand in the way of a good narrative?!?

I think back about how I tried so hard to keep my job, jumped through all the hoops, to be a teacher. I heard the horror stories and I chose to be a teacher anyway. I don't know what I was thinking.
So, you’re saying we should raise the ridiculously low compensation for subs rather than increasing the pay of teachers making six figures?
You’re so jealous of teacher salaries… get a life. We get it. You hate teachers. They’ll continue to make more than you. Get a better job if you’re so upset. Grow up.
Did you read the earlier post describing the added workload on teachers because of a lack of subs? You don't think the $21/hour pay with no benefits plays a role in that?
MCPS makes it incredibly difficult for people to apply to be subs. It's not even just the pay. It's the process, which is unclear and lengthy. And the Council has nothing to do with that. MCPS leadership does.

I’m well aware of how poorly subs are paid. That has absolutely nothing to do with the point I made. Teachers should be paid well; so should subs.

So why does he send at least one kid to Sandy Spring Friends School? They clearly have something he thinks MCPS is lacking.
Jawando is a public official, but his child is not. Give the child some privacy.
+1 I am completely speculating but maybe his child has anxiety, learning disabilities, any number of things better handled in a smaller environment. Not our business. Move on.

MCEA did a pretty good job as it was at demonstrating why Jawando sends his kids to private school.

He can think that all he wants. It doesn’t change the realities of needing to determine a budget.
