[quote=Anonymous]MCPS used to be a full 50% of the budget so I think they should get more money. Now, there are more kids participating in FARMs and need more support. Way more special ed students, who also need more support. And, the infrastructure is an effing mess - some schools are old and falling apart (Damascus, Eastern, Wootton, Magruder), others are crazy overcrowded with no relief in sight. We need the Planning Board to stop focusing on only Housing development (and listening to Dan Reed), and look at the entire infrastructure (schools, police, community centers, fire, libraries, etc., etc.) MCPS used to be a shining star, now it's a black eye. Needs a huge infusion of funds to fix infrastructure and try and keep teachers and hire more special ed teachers. Saying they waste money is like saying you waste money by occasionally buying a Starbucks or Avacado Toast - it's a massive system, and there's always parts here and there that any one individual disagree with[/quote]
