[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What do you think will happen to MCPS' lowest performing students/families with recent election results, will the county's population change, will priorities and initiatives change? [/quote]

Nobody knows. If you are counting on mass deportation I just offer caution that this is not actually an easy thing to do. Maybe I am totally off base but I really don't see a huge reduction happening in the number of immigrant kids in the school system.

Most funding for schools comes from the county and the state, not the federal government. It's possible/likely federal education funding might reduced, but they won't eliminate it completely.

I think more than any issues at the federal level, the local funding issues are going to continue to erode resources for kids. Nobody likes to talk about this but pension costs are exploding and it's really eating into everything else.[/quote]

Every district in MD receives federal funds in Title 1 funding. It’s not a small amount. [/quote]

It's not the majority of school funding either. They may reduce it, but won't eliminate it.[/quote]
