[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]An hour drive for graduation? That is nuts. Why would MCPS pick UMBC? Can’t they do it at Strathmore or MC? [/quote] Strathmore seats fewer than 2000. A moderate HS has a graduating class over 600, some have 700+. Just 2 or 3 tickets per student? MC has nothing more than a quarter that size.[/quote] MC puts up an air conditioned tent (4000-5000 people) on their athletic field with full stage, multiple camera rigs, and adjacent restroom trailers. There’s tons of parking and they use their theatre for overflow. MC’s graduation is the week before Memorial Day. I don’t understand why MC and MCPS don’t partner together and keep the setup to run MCPS graduations there. [/quote] Probably the cost of an air-conditioned tent and all you described for 5000 people is over MCPS Budget.[/quote]
