From today's Board of Education agenda:



What happened to using the University of Maryland in College Park facility?

How many MCPS high schools will have to transport their students and families to Baltimore for their high school graduation ceremony?

  2. The last time I was on the UMCP campus there was a MAJOR renovation & new building of their field house occurring which might be part of the issue. The construction also took up a significant portion of nearby parking.

    1. Different part of campus from where graduations are held.

  3. New field house under construction - if you're not familiar with the campus you'll be driving all over to find parking.

    1. That is nowhere near the Xfinity Center where graduations are held.
