BACKGROUND:

The Office of Pupil Accounting and School Boundaries is soliciting public input for improvements in school boundaries, grade structures and programs. Using input from these forums, Dr. Kevin Maxwell, Chief Executive Officer of Prince George’s County Public Schools, will propose a set of improvements to be considered for adoption by the Board of Education. Prior to a vote by the Board, formal public hearings will be held to obtain additional public input on the CEO’s specific recommended improvements.

The following items will be discussed:

• Boundaries for the New Hyattsville Area Elementary School
• Sending 6^th grade students to middle school
• Establishment and Expansion of Theme and Specialty Programs

An overview of each discussion item will be presented by PGCPS officials, followed by a structured opportunity for public input.
