Heads up! Our parent watchdogs have scanned the upcoming agenda for Montgomery County Public Schools. We found 4 items that need your immediate attention before the vote.
| MONITOR (LEVEL 5) |
|
Vague Title β Manual Review Required
The board is reviewing a data report on “Independent Activity Funds.” These school-level funds can sometimes be used with little oversight to purchase unvetted curriculum materials or pay for activist speakers. The report detailing the spending is not provided.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: ‘Independent Activity Funds’ (Item 6.1) can be used with little oversight. Open the data report on the district’s website to see where this money is going. Email the Board at BOE@mcpsmd.org: ‘I request full transparency and detailed accounting for all Independent Activity Fund expenditures.’
π° Taxpayer Impact: Potential Slush Fund
|
| MONITOR (LEVEL 5) |
|
Vague Title β Manual Review Required
The committee is reviewing the work plan for the Internal Audit unit, which determines what the district’s own auditors will investigate. This plan could be used to conduct political “equity audits” to justify more DEI spending, rather than focusing on academic value and fiscal waste.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: The Internal Audit work plan (Item 6.2) directs what gets investigated. Open the attachment on the district’s website and email the Board at BOE@mcpsmd.org: ‘Please confirm the Internal Audit unit is focused on rooting out financial waste, not conducting political ‘equity audits’.’
π° Taxpayer Impact: Politicized Audits
|
| ALERT (LEVEL 4) |
|
Vague Title β Manual Review Required
The committee is setting its annual work plan, which dictates its financial priorities for the entire year. The actual plan is in an attachment that is not included in the agenda summary, hiding what the district intends to focus on spending-wise from public view.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: The committee’s work plan (Item 2.1) sets financial priorities for the year. Open the attachment on the district’s official agenda site to see if they are prioritizing academics or ideological agendas. Email the Board at BOE@mcpsmd.org and ask: ‘What is the top financial priority in the FY27 Work Plan?’
π° Taxpayer Impact: Undisclosed Priorities
|
| ALERT (LEVEL 4) |
|
Vague Title β Manual Review Required
The board is reviewing its own spending for the past fiscal year, but the report is only available as an attachment. It is crucial for parents to see if taxpayer money was spent on memberships to political lobbying groups or travel to ideological conferences.
Recommended Action Plan
INVESTIGATE: The Board’s own spending is detailed in the report for Item 7.1. Open the attachment on the district’s website to check for spending on political lobbying or ideological conferences. Email the Board at BOE@mcpsmd.org: ‘Parents deserve to know if our tax dollars are funding political activism.’
