Love the sound of collaborative chatter during a table activity in professional learning sessions. As a wise person once said “The smartest person in the room is the room” - Chris Lloyd. Had a great morning unpacking the new ELA curriculum with pre-k special education teachers.
We have heard nothing about how they plan to reduce other spending categories before resorting to this.
MCEA Shares Email That Details Staffing Reductions Sent By MCPS Chief of Staff to MCPS Principals Click below for full article. mocoshow.com/2024/06/01/mce…
MoCo parents, please pay attention to what is happening in MCPS. Call Felder and Hull and tell them to stop the insanity of balancing a budget on the backs of students and staff..These layoffs and voided contracts can be avoided,leadership just needs the will to do it @mceanea
Let @MCPS know that they cannot balance their budget on the backs of educators and students. Reductions in staff and turning away already-hired new educators is the WORST possible decision for our schools. #chopfromthetop #noeducatorlayoffs #useyourteachervoice @mceanea

#MCPS PEP hosted our winter Family Engagement Play Group event at @kidsgroundmd . It was great to see so many families and model play and communication supports while parents connected and kids played! #earlyintervention #familyengagement
Pre-K and PEP teamed up to provide professional learning to over 500 staff members! It was an exciting day full of new learning, reconnecting with colleagues and preparing to welcome MCPS’s youngest learners to schools on Tuesday! #earlychildhoodeducation
NEO is always an exciting time! The PEP admin team enjoyed meeting our new PEP teachers during Day 3 - “Special Education Day”! We are looking forward to a great year!
At this time of year Im asking educators to utilize this guide I helped write for @MdPublicSchools #AAEEBB initiative. Its a useful resource for those looking for researched based strategies to address disproportionality & increase achievement #BlackBoys marylandpublicschools.org/stateboard/Pag…
