[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Holy smokes!  There are some outrageous lies and misinformation in this thread.

JW has the same turf field that is used at Germantown Soccerplex.  It it safe.

Annual Maintenance of grass field costs approximately $60K while annual maintenance for turf field is about $20K.

NO. No teacher salary is being cut to pay for turf management/maintenance.

MCPS can charge a lot more for turf field rentals compared to grass fields.

Please stop with the lies. I have a DC that will be attending JW next year and I’m excited that they will have better field to play on than the crappy grass field that was previously there. [/quote]

Well you added more misinformation.

The SoccerPlex is not the same as JWMS.  Totally different company, product and materials.

YES, teachers salaries are cut to pay for this.  MCPS takes money from the Operating Budget to pay for MSI Soccer fields.  That means less money to pay teachers.

MCPS has not been able to charge anything for field rentals.  They don't rent the fields and the imagine rental fees never came in to the County.  MCPS has been using Operating Budget funds to install and replace these fields.  [/quote]
