[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We’re in-bounds for Einstein and have kids in middle and elementary currently.

We need to speak up about the unfairness of these proposed changes.  There are a lot of well-educated, articulate parents who could make a strong case why we need different options.  I’ve already responded to the survey as such.

What else?  Testimony to the BOE?  Get media attention on the issue?  I don’t know that it will ultimately change things, but I think we have to try hard.[/quote]

Attend the County Council's Education and Culture Committee session tomorrow from 1:30-4:30pm at 100 Maryland Avenue in Rockville in the 3rd Floor Hearing Room and bring signs[/quote]

Here is the link to the agenda for this public meeting occurring tomorrow. The third item relates to the regional program proposal https://montgomerycountymd.granicus.com/GeneratedAgendaViewer.php?view_id=169&event_id=16606[/quote]

Thank you for this suggestion and the link!

Because this agenda item is about the regional program proposal, and not the boundary study, what’s the ask for Einstein?  Ensure we have robust AP offerings or a regional IB program?  Don’t support the regional program at all so the DCC is preserved?  I don’t think it’s tenable to implement or even propose a new regional program concurrently with boundary changes.  We need to see what the new schools look like before suggesting further changes.[/quote]

I agree with you. I think they need to stop moving forward with this and think through the impacts more. They need to have a budget and a lot more public engagement. I guess an alternative would be to move the Humanities program to Einstein.[/quote]
