In July 2019, the Board requested the Superintendent hire an outside consultant to work with the Board to identify best practices in boundary policy and engage the community in the discussion.
MGT Consulting Group (MGT), an education consulting firm, will be sharing information about the boundary policy review at three upcoming community meetings and seeking community input in a survey. The community meetings will not be discussing any boundary changes for any schools within FCPS. The information shared will focus on what factors should be considered when making boundary changes.
You are invited to attend a virtual community meeting. Each meeting will provide the same information and use the same format. No specific boundary changes will be discussed at the meetings. The last meeting dates is:
Monday, September 20, 7 to 8 p.m.
Please register online to receive the meeting link and indicate if you need an interpreter. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdbMhdDJIE-5D8WDDQxmAmvV4QCRSMFG-inrD4Q2Tmr8d6c-Q/viewform?utm_name=
