At the Jan. 13, 2025 meeting the Charles County Board of Education received an update on blueprint implementation from Ms. Miller and a legislative briefing from Mr. Schwartz outlining potential bills being introduced to the Maryland General Assembly that could affect school systems statewide.
The blueprint update, as summarized in the meeting recap, discussed positions being taken by key stakeholders this year to help address challenges faced by local LEAs; attendees were directed to a dedicated blueprint page on the Charles County Board of Education website for further information. Mr. Schwartz provided a legislative update and advised the board to "stay tuned for updates as this year's legislative session progresses," according to the transcript recap.
The transcript does not record votes, specific bill numbers, or a board directive to take a formal legislative position. Materials on the district website or subsequent board agendas would be needed to identify specific bills or any formal board actions regarding state legislation.
