[QUOTE]The Montgomery County Public Schools Board of Education violated part of the state Open Meetings Act during a closed session last year by failing to provide sufficiently detailed disclosures to the public before meeting in closed session, according to an opinion letter from the Maryland Open Meetings Compliance Board that was made public Friday.

The state board’s finding comes as the school board and MCPS are responding defensively to a call for greater transparency from County Council President Evan Glass (D-At-large), which he described in an op-ed in MoCo360.

An MCPS spokesperson did not immediately respond to requests for comment via text and email Saturday.[/QUOTE]

Yikes. Dr. McKnight and Karla Silvestre's insistence that MCPS is open and accountable just lost the last leg that it was standing on. Evan Glass and the other council members are going to rightfully eat their lunch over this. [/quote]
