Tracy-
There are better ways that you don't have to throw away the good with the bad and you seem smart enough to find a better way. I would hope your experience here on this anonymous blog might help you understand this isn't the best way to show accountability. To say you we are sacrificing children in the FCPS system when compared ot the rest of the country and the world is nothing less than melodrama.
I agree there are some problems with teachers and I actually think your solution will make the problems worse not better. As some other posters have said I find you to be somewhat out of touch with the educational system in Fairfax County and certainly the balance of the country.
