[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The county council has approved construction of a huge new apartment complex in our neighborhood, but our local ES is already over capacity with no new updates/improvements on the horizon. Do the council and MCPS talk to each other about this sort of thing? How do they approve these types of projects without having a plan on where the kids can go (besides adding portables which is not a solution). There doesn’t seem to be any thought as to the long term impacts to our schools……[/quote]

Portables ARE the permanent solution in MCPS. County council loves them and has been using them for 45 years.[/b] Schools will always be overcrowded. The council loves the optics of looking like poor Montgomery county needs more money for its sad overcrowded schools. 
Overcrowded schools are needed to get the budget increased every year. MCPS is then free to waste as much money as they like.
Next year schools will still be overcrowded and MCPS will go back and cry for more money again.[/quote]

This.  Look at Einstein and RM.  Permanent portables.

I agree hat the county council loves to ask for more money, while the BOE and MCPS waste so much money on useless initiatives.  [/quote]

For example, the new high schools at Woodward and Crown... :roll: [/quote]
