[quote=Anonymous]Newsflash: it is NOT just BES, it is all over the county.  The Pat O'Neil hater needs to go away, she doesn't set the budget MCPS asks for, Dr Smith and Dr Zuckerman do that.  And then the County Council gives them less than what they ask for.  And the Taxpayer League comes out and says the schools get to much money already.

School construction is way behind, the Planning Board says 200,000 more people are headed to the county and there is a housing shortage.  The long range planning staff at MCPS is a JOKE.  And then there are those crazies who think we can bus our way to a solution for overcrowding (newsflash #2, that is not going to happen). And we are supposedly in a great economy.  Think about what is going to happen when the pending recession hits for real.

We as tax paying citizens need to unite, and demand more funds from the County Council for schools. Full Stop.

MCCPTA, why are you not pushing for this? 2 years ago, PTAs across the county united around more funds for all, and we got a tax increase (first in 9 years) and the recordation tax.  All went to schools.  Now the organization is nothing but divisive.  Get your act together, pull the ENTIRE COMMUNITY together and do it again![/quote]
