[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Total agree with the post that says “not personal” because for some of us it will feel like a factory and rushed. BEFORE you jump on me - not all MCPS schools are huge. Damascus does graduation at their football field because that is what the parents want. Poolesville did theirs at Mount St Mary’s which is perfect for the Poolesville school location. Yeah we are small towns and want a smaller feel but it was taken away from us because it’s always about the bigger schools.

Totally agree about not using DAR and I agree UMBC is a good location but not for all. [/quote]

But if MCPS got a better deal by holding ALL the graduations there this year, then it frees up desperately-needed money for the rest of their long to-do list.

You seem to have forgotten that your high school is just a small part of a very large, unwieldy and impersonal school system. Everything cannot revolve around your school's needs, and believe me, coming from a very large overcrowded down-county school, everything does not revolve around my children's needs either!

This is how it is when your taxes pay for your kids' education, without an extra 60K tuition per kid out of your own pocket every year. I have friends and neighbors who pay that much to attend private school.
