Picked up my son Tanner from his private school today. First thing he said: “Mom! It was a great day!” Me: “What happened buddy?” Him: “We are going mask optional as of Monday!!” The joy on his face was indescribable! Thank you @ADWCathSchools for allowing my son this joy! 🧵1/

This is a very disappointing article from @washingtonpost . So much drama & embellishment. As someone who isn’t conservative at all & wholeheartedly disagrees w/ masking, the headline is nothing more than a feeble attempt at furthering division. Pathetic.

@heymrsbond I’m not Jewish & have said this for a long time (and I didn’t grow up or go to college or grad school w/ anyone Jewish). I have a friend who is Greek Orthodox & she’s always said it too. I don’t think that wanting someone’s memory to be a blessing is only a Jewish sentiment.🤷🏻‍♀️

@proftinkerbell @vlal42 School is more than academics. Kids were cut off from their peer & team/club support systems. For many, it’s about the building itself bc for some, the bldg is the only safe place they have. The only warm place. The only place they get/feel love. You can’t get that on a screen.

@proftinkerbell @vlal42 Seems you were a lucky one to live in a place that didn’t keep schools closed for over a year. Kids here are paying the price for schools being closed basically until the 21-22 school year. I’m willing to let closures from March-June 2020 slide. Anything beyond that was criminal.

@SickoftheSwamp @adamcarolla It’s not just elem school. It’s from preschool settings all the way to HS & college. So many of us (esp those of us in mental health) shouted it from the rooftops & testified at school board mtgs, that schools needed to be open. They didn’t listen & now we have a youth MH crisis.

I have so many questions for @MCPS after reading this. They’re more corrupt than I realized. Why are so many people beholden to Beidelman? Who cares if they’d have had to fire him if the report was filed in its original form? 1/

The 🕳️ keeps getting bigger and bigger… Important fact: McKnight & Beidelman were longtime friends. The amount of shady dealings that Beidelman had going on at FMS is staggering & it goes way beyond what’s been covered publicly… 1/

Today @MoCoCouncilMD discussed monkey pox which will be the newest topic of hysteria for many in MoCo. They need focus on being the county council & stop trying to be in charge of health/medical things they know nothing about. It's absurd that they sit as the board of health. 🧵1

What kind of BS message is this? Kids were “playing” in the bathroom & one pulled out a knife. But hey don’t worry, they weren’t in a conflict or a fight, so it was determined the knife wasn’t being used to cause harm. This time…It’s high time @MCPS takes these things seriously.

Let’s be clear @MCPS . This wasn’t just an “incident of gun violence.” This was a school shooting. No amount of sugarcoating or your famous rug sweeping is going to change that. If safety and security are your top priority, it should be “in the hours and days ahead…”, not months!

. @MCPS settles with Jane Doe for $300,000 by @AdamPagnucco . This could’ve been settled for free if CO & @mocoboe had taken complaints seriously & investigated rather than ignore & rug sweep. Read the quote from her lawyer- no truer words have been spoken.

I’m at @MCPS @mocoboe meeting. If anyone goes over their time & attempts to finish their testimony, @brendawolff1 signals the security guard who goes over & turns off the mic. There’s a reason they decreased the time from 3 mins to 2 mins. They don’t really want to hear from us.

I can’t believe people didn’t know this. This is @MCPS ’s MO- happens all the time. It’s The Central Office Shuffle. It’s sweep, shuffle, repeat.💃🏻🕺 I’m quite sure this is what would’ve happened w/ Beidelman had the situation not blown up the way it did.

@KellyTKPK This infuriates me. Telehealth should be an option, but never the default. It’s not even developmentally appropriate for younger kids. To only offer teletherapy is unethical in my opinion bc it does a disservice to patients or potential patients as not all can access it.

I want to know how exactly he sees said smiles? In my county, @MCPS still requires anyone in a school to be masked, so definitely not able to see smiles here. And having to wear the masks makes many kids scowl and frown, so again, no smiles to see. #maskchoicenow

@Shenandwow @unheardparent This is really how Covid has destroyed lives. This is the “long Covid” we really need to be worried about- the irrational behavior of many which led to this. It’s the new survival of the fittest whereby they put their 02 mask on first & leave the child alone to fend for themself.

WTF is going on @MCPS ? Who in CO is making these decisions, telling principals to downplay assaults? The Clarksburg HS principal was also instructed to not suspended any more students bc suspension #’s are too high. So MCPS, what is more important- safety/lives or reputation?

Crazy that ppl are saying she didn’t know about Beidelman before his promotion. It’s a fact that she knew. WJLA should ask all the complainants. Oh wait, they can’t bc they fear retaliation from @MCPS , which is justified. Look at what they did to Walker.

Do the right thing @mocoboe & eliminate all 3 from @MCPS . The virtual academy isn’t needed & it’s a failure, just like Leader in Me. Testimony at the last BoE meeting indicated the innovative school calendar isn’t working either. This is one vote that should be a unanimous ‘yes’.

This is what integrity & humility looks like. Something many of the other BOE candidates do not have. MoCo, once again, votes for the machine & it will lead to the continued demise of our school system. “You reap what you sow,” is the MoCo way & kids end up the collateral damage

This is ridiculous. . @MCPS / @mocoboe can pay McKnight millions to leave, hire more CO staff that make $200k+ a year, pay lawyers big $ to fight SpEd parents, but they can’t fund basic supplies. It’s disgusting the way they mismanage funds, never funding what’s actually important.

@Dawn_LCPC I’d love for all my students to get to experience the eclipse, but I can’t buy one more thing out of pocket for a school district (MCPS) that’s been on a spending freeze for months and will remain so through the end of the year. I’ve spent way too much for pencils,basic supplies.

JFC. The @mocoboe and @MCPS are even more corrupt than I thought (and I didn’t think that was possible). Teachers can’t buy needed supplies & SpEd students can’t get their required resources, but they can pay a sexual predator’s legal fees? What in the actual f*ck is going on?!

What’d @MCPS expect? They & @mocoboe showed kids that schl wasn’t important by keeping them closed for over a yr. Kids weren’t even required to keep their cameras on, which also showed that making connections didn’t matter. They reap what they sow & the kids are collateral damage

New data about remote learning being a big fail. Uh, yeah, of course. Pre-pandemic research showed that even SHORT closures were bad, let alone a YEAR! Many of us tried DESPERATELY to reverse this impending disaster, but were largely ignored and often disparaged. 🧵🧵🧵
