The "More" Child: What's Fees-ible in MCPS

What’s “Fees-ible” in MCPS

Note: Has the "application fee" referenced in this blog posting been approved by the Board of Education?  Get the facts! This is a great "teachable" moment for you and your child. Call the MCPS Public Relations office at (301) 279-3853 and ask them when the Board voted to set an application fee for high school magnet programs. Make sure the PR office gives you the date of the meeting and a copy of the resolution. Let us know what you find out.
