Beall Elementary Capacity Study Meeting Thursday, Jan. 6
As many readers know, one of the local schools that is among the most impacted by crowding is Beall Elementary. The Montgomery County Public School system has agreed to begin a feasibility study to look at adding capacity. The process was supposed to have included four meetings to begin in December, but the first meeting got snowed out.
So, the first meeting of the capacity study is this Thursday, January 6, at 4:00 pm at Beall Elementary. I spoke to the coordinator of the meeting, and he told me that the meeting is best characterized as a “worksession” — staff will present various options for mechanisms to expand the school, and hear feedback and thoughts. He said it would be “hands on.”
(The next meetings after Thursday are January 20 at 7:00 pm and February 10 at 3:30 pm.)

So the school system that built a BRAND-NEW school that was already over capacity within what, a year or two? is going to try to work out how feasible an addition is? Hopefully not based on the same data that completely failed them the first time around. :-\
