As Montgomery County Public Schools seeks a new superintendent, how can we ensure that high-needs schools will have the leadership they need? Join us and the Montgomery County Education Forum for “What the Next Superintendent Must Deliver,” a community forum on how the next superintendent of MCPS can best meet the needs of a growing and diverse school population. We’ll have speakers including both education experts and MCPS students and take a detailed look at our 13 questions that the Board of Education should consider in finding a new superintendent.

The meeting’s next Thursday, March 19 from 7 to 9:30pm at the Silver Spring Civic Building, located at One Veterans Place in downtown Silver Spring. For more information or to RSVP, check out our Facebook event page.

MCPS neglects the at-risk. It’s language immersion programs (while lottery based) serve the upwardly mobile. (a parent who has time to learn about programs, a parent who can drive to far away school)

MCPS could learn from Evanston, IL (demographically not so different than Silver Spring)
This is a more equitable immersion program

MCPS is ridiculously huge. Should split up county and down county. Overwhelming number of schools to manage. And apparently very different need for snow days upcountry!
