How much "equity" do you believe the current MCPS board will enable?

This! Every BOE candidate should be asked whether or not they value proximity as the most important factor like 90% of the county said.

C'mon, facts: 90% of the handful of self-selected respondents to an online survey.

Fact - MCPS does most of it's corruption without fully notifying all parents, then asking for their input before making their decisions.
Fact - most parents are working and think MCPS is acting in their best interests, not on some personal agenda to boost friends and family.
Fact - the current board and co keeps falsely claiming that parents valued diversity over proximity.

Posters like you are out of touch. You have your opinions and really don't care about anyone else's. The arrogance is deafening.

If MCPS was totally honest, they would clearly publish maps to all parents, explain where their children would be, then ask each parent to provide an opinion.

The instruction would be clear, such as, "if you live in this part of the map, your ES would be A, your MS would be B, and your HS would be C under Option A"

There would also be clear reasons stated for boundaries such as "the reason why this zone was attached here was that 500 families are in zone A, but zone B only has 50 projected families, so could be transported for less cost to the other ES."

This type of openness and honesty is something that the current MCPS leadership would never do.

MCPS publishes the maps. Also, the BoE does not make school boundary decisions based on current parent referendum, nor should they.

This is exactly how the boundary policy was changed to prioritize diversity over proximity and the other two factors. The community was never notified. This was intentional to minimize parent pushback to a wildly unpopular policy change? How unpopular you ask? 90% of the county said they would never be in favor of this change.

Instead of MCPS asking each parent to provide an opinion every time there's a boundary change, how about we elect a smaller group of people to represent us on some sort of board of education, and then this board could vote yes or no on the proposed boundaries?

I support this idea.

How about we add to the Women's League of Voter's list for the next election of the MCBOE.

Do you support non-contiguous Elementary School boundaries that remove walkers from their closest school?

Would you ensure that the boundary studies of new school openings are comprehensive and examine ES, MS, HS boundaries and feeders?

Would you recommend the removal of any MCPS employee enacting policies inconsistent with the Montgomery County Board of Education?

That should make it very clear where everyone stands and that way the voters vote how they would like to see the county schools act upon their behalf.

Which non-contiguous Elementary School boundaries remove walkers from their closest school?
