A boundary study to determine which students will attend a new elementary school in Gaithersburg might last longer as Montgomery County Public Schools grapples with what it hopes is a temporary decline in enrollment due to COVID-19.
In April, the school district began a routine boundary study after authorizing the construction of a new elementary school in the city, intended to relieve crowding at several schools.
The new school will sit on a 6-acre section of Kelley Park, on Victory Farm Drive, and have space for about 740 students.
The $26 million project is expected to be completed in September 2022...
PCMC NOTE: The school project project is actually more like $28 Million because MCPS is throwing in an artificial turf football field, bleachers, a tot lot and lighting for the City of Gaithersburg. Gifts to the City that the Board of Education never voted on. Superintendent Jack Smith is just a giver. Why not give gifts to the City of Gaithersburg during a pandemic when education funding is already stressed? No worries for Jack Smith. He had an extra $2 Million sitting in a drawer.
