The MD Constitution was not created by the Parents' Coalition. Neither was the letter from the Maryland Attorney General's office that confirms that public school is free. <br /><br />Ummm fees for teachers to ride buses? You are kidding right?

Others schools like Sherwood and Whitman prefer to extort money from seniors They are easy marks. They need to get their final transcript and they have events they want to attend. So they turn over the cash in order to Janis Sartuccihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17027024806736232367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-722263422968684230.post-84815059836396630952015-01-13T19:46:54.041-05:002015-01-13T19:46:54.041-05:00Class dues for seniors at Sherwood High School for...Class dues for seniors at Sherwood High School for this 2014-2015 school year was $45.00.

I doubt it. Most will just pay the fee and go along with it. The parents down there don't bother to question anything at WWHS. You should check out the article in the B&W about some of the teachers that have spent their careers there, including the one assistant principal.
