Nice censoring of comments on this thread. Congrats MCPS! But still no one has been able to name one single thing a SMOB has done to stand up for students. The SMOB consistently votes mindlessly with the adults.

Not true. At the most recent meeting, Suvarna disagreed with several of the adult members about how the proposed changes to the grading system would be rolled out, on the grounds that it would negatively impact juniors.

And? Discussion only. No vote.

It wasn't an issue to be voted on. The point was, he stood up for current students and raised important concerns the other board members weren't thinking about.

Which anyone can do without getting paid $30K.

The SMOB is unpaid, but they receive a $25K college scholarship.

That is a payment. Plus expense account for trips, meals and perks.

You seem to have some sort of vendetta against SMOBs. What happened to you, PP?

+100. What do you have against a student representing the student voices on the BOE?

When will actual students have a voice on the BOE?

The SMOBs are all actual students.

Name one SMOB that was ever on the BOE that was an average student that went off to Montgomery College like the average MCPS graduate.

You can’t. Those students are not allowed to run.

Huh? I don't want average student to be SMOB. Just like I don't want senile farting Nazi idiots to become POTUS.

You are comparing average MCPS students to Trump? Why do you hate MCPS students and why do you have such a low opinion of them?

Of course they're allowed to run.

"Students who are residents of Montgomery County, are regularly enrolled in a Montgomery County public school, and are either sophomores or juniors are eligible to run for SMOB. Filing forms are available through local student government organizations, the Student Leadership Unit, or on the Web. Candidates may nominate themselves or be nominated by others."

Their names are NEVER on the ballot. NEVER.
Any average student is excluded by the club that selects the SMOB.

There is a nominating convention of delegates from each school that determines the two finalists on the ballot.

In order to exclude average students. You prove the point that average students are never permitted on the ballot.

What are you talking about? The students on the ballot are chosen by other students at the convention. The students at the convention are chosen by other students at their schools.
