The past five years represent a tremendous period of progress for MCPS. The student population has grown by almost 12,000 children and has become increasingly diverse. At the same time, student achievement has improved, contradicting the commonly held belief that large, diverse school systems, especially ones impacted by increased student poverty, are likely to undergo a decline in student achievement. We worked hard to prevent such a decline. We created more opportunity for parent, staff and community involvement in strategic planning, implementation, and evaluation. Public support for academic reform has resulted in important school improvements, beginning with early childhood education and continuing through high school.
