[quote=Anonymous]Thanks OP for your effort and keep us informed. It is indeed obvious MCPS officials already made thier decisions how to run the programs but just let us know a little bit at a time and did some useless survey along the way to show 'transparency' and 'democracy'.

However i do think some detail can be twisted and make it work for vast majority of the MCPS students.

Some corrections here: the only countywide programs in your list are RMIB and poolsville Ecology. Blair and Poolsville SMCS are actually regional, or half-countywide, poolsville Humanity is also only for upper county (regional or half countywide whatever you want to call it). It is possible that they can keep those programs as 'cross regional' model, simply added one more so that two regions will share one SMCS or other high demand program, which increase access, shorter commute and not sacrificing the program qualities.

For RMIB, poolsville ecology, VAC, LASJ, aviation and areospace and some other countywide programs are different stories. There are already regional IBs available.

[quote=Anonymous]Just to avoid my response to a previous post being buried:

As one of the audience in yesterday's BOE meeting, I asked Niki Hazel in the hallway after her presentation, and got her clear confirmation that Blair SMACS, Poolsville humanity, SMACS and GE and RMIB will become regional programs once they implement the model. Unfortunately BOE didn't raise the question for clarification, so there's no video footage.

In the meeting, Niki and Dr. Taylor confirmed that they are seeking a BOE motion in December this year.
