BOE has $318,581 for Commercial Lease for Classrooms while Existing School Space is Unused

4 Choke Cherry Road, Rockville

Ever been to 4 Choke Cherry Road in Rockville?  Next time you are in the neighborhood drive by and say hello to the MCPS administrators that are housed at that office building.  You'll be able to find them by their reserved parking spaces and MCPS paid for SUVs.

The BOE has decided that they can spare $318,581 each year for administrators to have spacious offices and for classrooms for training.  Yes, you read that correctly.  MCPS is leasing CLASSROOMS.  Meanwhile, existing, paid for, rent free MCPS public school buildings are not in use by the Board of Education.  An entire wing of Sligo Middle School is even unused and available!  But, the MCPS budget is so flush with cash that the Board of Education has no problem spending these funds on perks for administrators.

Teachers, you still buying your own classroom supplies?
