Gazette: MCPS won't grant 14-year-old tuition waiver

When you enrolled your child in your neighborhood public school did you have to ask for a "tuition waiver"?

In Montgomery County public school isn't free despite what the Maryland Constitution says. In Montgomery County the Superintendent and Board of Education pick and choose which students they want to educate. It doesn't matter if you are a born in the U.S.A. county resident living here legally, in Montgomery County you can be denied an education!

The June 17, 2009 Gazette reports on the denial of an education to a county resident.

Read the Board of Education (President Nancy Navarro) and Superintendent Jerry Weast decisions denying an education for this county resident teen here.
