Montgomery County Public Schools

Superintendent of Schools Jerry D. Weast will present his recommended operating budget for Fiscal Year 2005 to the Board of Education on Wednesday, December 10, 2003, beginning at 7:30 p.m. in the auditorium of Montgomery Blair High School at 51 University Boulevard, East, in Silver Spring.

“Our continuing challenge is to maintain the investment in a quality education program by ensuring that we support our teachers, principals, and support staff through a well-funded operating budget,” said Dr. Weast in inviting principals, other staff, PTA leaders, community representatives, and elected officials to the public presentation. "Your participation is a key element of the budget process.”

The community presentation, which will focus on the academic performance and fiscal needs of the Montgomery County Public Schools, is open to the public.
