[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]BOE is simply PTA on steroids…no one has any outside perspective, just mothers (of former students) who cut their teeth on PTA nonsense…[b]how about electing a teacher [/b]or having some diversity in gender?

Yeah, like maybe someone who spent 38 years as a teacher and administrator with Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS). Or someone who taught Medical Science with Clinical Applications at Thomas Edison High School of Technology from August 2016 through November 30, 2020. Or someone who served 27 years in various capacities in the United States Department of Education. Or someone who serves as the Director of Community Engagement at Montgomery College.

No, wait, I copied that from the BoE member bios.

Alternatively, maybe the PP is peddling fact-free misogyny...[/quote]

It is a bit bizarre that the BOE and the County Council are like a1950s married couple. The men on the Council decide how much money the women on the BOE can spend. I blame the low BOE salaries.[/quote]

I also think it would be helpful if the BoE salaries were higher. It's basically a full-time job for $25,000 per year.[/quote]

It's not that men aren't interested in running. Three men were on the ballot in 2020. But the candidates preferred by the voters happened to be women.
