One theory is it was to make Hogan look bad, since MCPS was pretty vocal about being against his order.

Another is MCPS is so slow-moving and rigid that making such a change later (even though the school year hadn't started) was too complicated.

I woudln't discount the second theory. Take today for example -- it's a long-planned early-release day, and as of last night, there was a change of late start due to snow. Now it would be pretty useless to have kids go to school 2 hours late, then get released 2.5 hours early.. might as well cancel school in that scenario.

[b]What Frederick, which also had an early release day planned, announced last night that they'd do a 2- hour delayed start, but cancel the early release day and make it regular release time. MCPS said that was too "complicated" to do last minute due to contracts for use of the shcool facilities and so on.[/b]

So... MCPS can't manage to adapt while Frederick can...[/quote]

Who gives a F what the the enrollment is. If you can’t properly manage a school district and blame its size for the reason, split the district up. [/quote]
