Peary High School Rebuilt in One Day!

Rome wasn't built in a day, but Peary High School was! 


As of yesterday morning, the Maryland State Public School Construction Program thought that the Peary High School building had been demolished. 


After months and months of preparation for today's meeting to approve the sale of the Peary High School site, the State had been told by Montgomery County Government that the Peary HS building had been demolished. That meant that there was no value left to the State of Maryland in this public school site. 


But...after the Agenda for today's meeting was made public the State of Maryland was alerted to the fact that Peary High School is in fact still standing! 


So take a look at the new Agenda for today's meeting of the State Committee to grant preliminary approval for the Peary High School sale. 


See the highlighted information below that shows the inclusion of a 220,000 sq. ft. building on the Peary High School site and the information that the State of Maryland has a $1,192,198 investment in this public school building. The State of Maryland is entitled by law to be reimbursed for some or all of their investment in this public school building. 


What a difference a day makes. Yesterday the State of Maryland had no financial interest in the sale of the Peary High School site, today they could have anywhere up to a $1,192,198 interest.
