Does the MCPS Board have a budget line item to pay out lawsuits for its incompetence or do we just expect class sizes to be bigger next year?

This. The BOE needs to be held accountable as does Taylor and central office.

Taylor wasn't even here when this happened. Nor were half of the board members.

The half the board members who were here when this happened should be held accountable. This is a lot of money and the jury found the Board to be liable for its actions.

This is where being cheap about having good competent oversight ends up costing you more money in the end. 500k in this case

Taylor could have settled this long before today. He knew what would come out in court.

It sounds like it was misinterpreted and the principal was not truthful and changed things in his email.

They should have investigated it better and never let it go to court. They owe the teacher an apology.
