Fact Check: Non-existent MCPS documents show up in Fairfax schools files

For many years, MCPS data had been included in the Washington Area Boards of Education Guide (WABE Guide).  Unfortunately, the 2011 WABE Guide did not include MCPS data, and we wanted to know why.

To find out why the WABE did not include MCPS data, we went to the expert, the MCPS Public Information Office, headed by Public Information Director Dana Tofig. Here is what Mr. Tofig told us when we requested correspondence between FCPS and MCPS that discusses the MCPS decision to not participate in the WABE Guide.

Publication of the WABE Guide is coordinated by Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS).  Here are the documents that FCPS provided when we asked for the correspondence that Mr. Tofig said did not exist.
