Exclusive Video: BOE and Council Eat and Discuss Bell Times, Final Exams and More

The Montgomery County Board of Education and the Montgomery County Council met today to discuss public school issues.  The meeting was held in a small conference room on the 6th floor of the County Council office building.  The meeting was not disclosed on the BOE schedule, yet the entire meeting was spent discussing topics related to the Montgomery County Public Schools.

Under the Maryland Open Meetings Act, this meeting was a public meeting.  The Parents' Coalition attended the meeting and videotaped most of the discussion.  There did not appear to be any member of the press in attendance at the meeting of these two public bodies as they discussed the county's $2.3 billion dollar public school system.
