[b]What is the evidence that MoCo is providing increased school capacity to match housing development?[/b]  Because there is a long list of overcapacity schools in popular areas. My kid's school has been more than 25% overcapacity for the last 3 years, and all it got is a "placeholder" to do a study for the next 6 years.   Meanwhile they've lost a music room, and the teacher's lounge has become a classroom and the County isn't allowing them to put up any trailers.  MoCo is setting the system up for  kindergarten classes to become 29 kids.[/quote]

Well, there are all of the new schools and additions they've built, plus the new schools and additions they are currently building, plus the new schools and additions there is planning money for...

Is the increase in school capacity keeping up with the increase in school enrollment? Obviously not. That's a funding problem. As far as I know, in the history of Montgomery County, increases in school capacity have always lagged behind increases in school enrollment.[/quote]
