[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]With all the boundary line posts and discussions, it is clear that there is a better option: Divide MCPS into smaller school districts and give more independent control to the districts.

Montgomery County has over 1,000,000 residents.  Public education is generally organized by municipalities (more common in New England) or by counties (more common in the mid-atlantic and southern states).

While the county-administered schools are logical in areas with more disperse or rural populations, Montgomery County has become too big for a single administered school system.  Let the people of Silver Spring, Gaithersburg, Takoma Park, etc, administer their own school districts and elect their own school board members. [/quote]

+1 I've been on this soap box for years now. Need to twist the State rules or change them. If folks get together it could happen. Let's do it![/quote]
Like the 10 of you on DCUM?
It would be lot easier for you guys to move.[/quote]

I really have a strong feeling there are more than ten of us. I grew up in the county and know a lot of people all of whom seem to agree it would be wise to TRY to change something because the current situation SICKS.

Also we didn't move per se but moved to private. And yes, I still care about the public schools in this county and would like to see them success so don't @ me with the but you don't even use the public schools. [/quote]
