[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is no winning for either the school system or the parents of the graduates. For some driving to DAR is an hour plus and for some driving to UMBC is an hour plus.

Graduating in the school field would be the ideal, but then you’re limited to the amount of people who can go to the graduation. I suppose nobody wants to or it’s too expensive to graduate at Montgomery College even though they’re both county funded (? Tell me if I’m wrong about what college.) UMBC might be further out, but with the financial crisis that the county is in, it’s the prudent choice.[/quote]

MC rents out their space. They aren’t limited.  They could set up tents at a few schools or central location and do it there.  Driving an hour plus for some of us isn’t doable.  [/quote]

+1  MCPS screws up by trying to have one standard solution for a graduation location in a district where it takes 2 hours to drive from end to end.  It could have offered MC and DAR and UMBC as options.  Instead it picks only UMBC and manages to annoy nearly everyone by choosing  a location that isn't even in the county where our kids attend school.[/quote]

Because there's nothing comparable within the county.[/quote]
