The BOE must stop treating MCPS like a babysitting service when making these decisions. That should not be a consideration. Public schools are supposed to educate students.
It is not the taxpayers responsibility to arrange a school schedule that accommodates childcare services for everyone. The schedule needs to work best for learning.
We've created an institution that is burdensome to taxpayers because we expect it to be mother, father, healthcare provider, child care provider, and a host of other services. This takes away from providing and sustaining the best academic program we can afford.
