Ask the Super and BOE to separate the program study from the boundary study

+1 pretty much no one thinks ramming these changes through is a good idea. Sign the petition--make your voice heard!

Don't sign. More delays is a waste. You just want to hoard programs. The county is larger than DCC.

The DCC was created because the schools lacked the classes and opportunities that the W schools have. With the regional plan, the W schools continue to have the better classes and resources and the DCC and other schools will continue to go without to make them strong schools.

Again, the county is more than the DCC and the W’s.

There are regions throughout the county under this proposal. The goal is to give more kids access to programs and strengthen home schools.

With the regional plan formerly DCC schools will host programs and have access to programs at other schools just like they do now.

And slowing down or stopping the regional model means that other areas without programs or school choice continue to not have programs or school choice.

School choice is not effective for improving student outcomes.

Agree but it’s apparently what the people want, since they think that having these regional programs will provide their kids more options. And the DCC seems to have a death grip on school choice.

You're trying to monolithesize parents to argue in favor of the regional program proposal.

I don't support school choice. I think the DCC has some benefits for many students from all backgrounds but overall it does not improve outcomes. I think taking that away and sending hundreds of high achieving kids to Whitman and BCC is a horrible idea. Here is what I think MCPS should do:
- A full audit of courses (not programs, that is a lazy way to look at school assets) available at each school
- In schools where certain types of courses are not available (e.g. AP physics or MVC), have one of the schools (a school that doesn't already have it) offer it and provide transportation from students' neighborhoods for those courses. This program should be limited to schools that do not already have these courses in place. Schools that already offer advanced coursework in multiple areas, like Whitman, should not be part of any regions)

What other parents think MCPS should do has no bearing on what I think they should do. I am an individual with my own opinions.

Having a bit of main character syndrome there, aren’t you. No one thinks that you speak for everyone.

The regional model came about because a lot of people felt cut out of the magnets and the choices that the consortia had. It’s been a topic on this board (for example) in different shapes for a long time.

Btw you sound really threatened by the above proposal. Are you CO staff?

lol no. But I guess when you can’t engage on the actual points of discussion, just attempt to poison the well.

Lady you are the one who responded to my post detailing an alternative approach to the program analysis with the following statements, without addressing any of the points I made.

That response wasn’t saying you should stop arguing for whatever you want, which was weirdly how you read it. I was saying that for a long time people have pursued school choice in various forms here in MCPS, resulting in this regional model proposal. What you and I may want apparently flies counter to what many others want.
