If that is what FCPS had said, I would be outraged. However it isn't. What FCPS said can be found here: https://www.fcps.edu/blog/message-parents-tutoring-pods This makes it clear that parents are free to form tutoring pods, FCPS teachers are free to tutor those pods on an independent contractor basis provided the kids are not in the teacher's classes and the teacher isn't doing the work on FCPS time, and that FCPS won't assist parents in setting up such tutoring pods. All OK.

The only thing truly troubling about what FCPS said was its statement "we do have concerns that they may widen the gap in educational access and equity for all students. Many parents cannot afford private instruction. Many working families can’t provide transportation to and from a tutoring pod, even if they could afford to pay for the service." This may all be true. However it isn't FCPS's job to suppress the total quality of education that some students are getting simply because students with access to better resources may end up with a better quality of education than those who don't. To the contrary FCPS's interest should be limited to making sure that every student in FCPS has access to the same SCHOOL PROVIDED resources on the same basis.

It is in fact arrogant and hypocritical of FCPS to be complaining about students getting uneven quality of educations based on parent supplied resources when FCPS has for years endorsed providing uneven quality of education using FCPS resources. If equality of educational opportunity matters to FCPS, it should start by cleaning its own house, rather than complaining about what parents are doing to supplement what FCPS does.

If FCPS is concerned about unequal opportunities, they need to close Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology.

They're worried the stupid niggers will fall even further behind. This is great, I hope parents realize it's a better education to home-school the kid than rely on the nanny state too busy teaching ESL

The bottom line is our taxpayer-funded school administration implied that they believe it would be better for all students to remain uneducated than have some students learn more than others. That is outrageous and anyone behind that blog post should be fired.

I do not quite understand why such a ban. Yes, parents will not provide the necessary education, but the child will not sit idle. In addition, many educational institutions now have introduced distance learning. Yes, it is not thoroughly worked out and students have problems. To solve problems during distance learning, you can use the website https://writix.co.uk/write-my-assignment , which helps in writing various papers on study. This site helps to write my assignment. As for parents in the educational process, many participate only in checking their homework.

We need ESL in our schools, so we can have a segment of our population to do the jobs we don’t want to do-

Maids,

Lawnmowers,

Tree trimming,

Signing up other illegals to vote Democrat.....

We need spec Ed classes for niglets, bc letting them run amok would be worse.
That’s why civil rights act was passed

I didn’t know where can i buy an essay a week ago, and now I myself already recommend the excellent buyessayfriend service to everyone. I tried to order a job there and they completed it after 2 days, it was a very cool experience, because today I was given a grade for this essay. Guess what it was! Excellent!

orders? no authority to order. Hopefully, parents grasp that basic understanding.

It is pathetic and worrisome to think that people could get into med school but lack the skills to write a personal statement. Plus the letter of recommendation is written by a third party not by you, something else someone who got into med school should know.

What is actually the idea behind this? I mean it is so stupid, my kids are always crying that they don't understand the subject in this online format, and I should just sit and look at them? Ok, let's admit that some parents might give the kid a wrong explanation, but omg!!! I am not a specialist in maths, so we went for private tutor on championtutor.com.As I see now, it's getting better. Me myself, I am doing a master now and I must say, E-learning is the worst I have experienced in my life! At least for me, this is my 2nd master, but think about those who are just at Bachelor stage....poor kids and poor students.
