State Senator Rich Madaleno has introduced two pieces of legislation that impact schools. One piece of legislation would begin the process of stripping Maryland students of their right to have transportation included as part of their free public education. The second piece of legislation would attempt to strip the City of Rockville of their oversight authority over school land.
Delegates Anne Kaiser and Tom Hucker have introduced legislation to allow select students, supervised by MCPS staff a full vote on the Board of Education. The selected student member of the Board of Education is supervised by MCPS staff as opposed to the adult Board members who are independent of MCPS. Delegates Kaiser and Hucker think that students supervised by MCPS staff should have full voting rights on the MCPS Operating and Capital Budgets.
After the Board of Education meets with the Montgomery County Delegation to Annapolis, the public has two opportunities to comment to the Delegation.
