2.  Enrollment goes up because of county building, which never ends. This is not the state's fault. The county increased property taxes 9% and with all the new properties they continue to build, the surplus should be going to the schools. Have you asked why they have not? You do realize the state's portion of the county education funding is half what the county puts in each year.  Why isn't the county asking the COUNTY to increase their funding?  Enrollment also goes up because Montgomery county is a welcoming sanctuary county. Frederick, Carroll, Anne Arundel, Baltimore, Cecil, etc... aren't sanctuary counties. Why should the state pay for the county's decision?  Once again, this falls under the county's funding.

Enrollment is going up because Montgomery County's population is going up. How is it relevant whether or not that's the state's fault? Is Governor Hogan's position, "I didn't ask people to move to Montgomery County and have children, therefore the state should not provide additional funding for the additional population of Montgomery County?"
