Sustainable Funding for Education
Knowing there are challenges looming with regards to education funding, GSC has formed a special Blue-Ribbon panel to take a comprehensive look forward. While fully recognizing that funding for education is a political decision, i.e. the funding is a budgetary process at the Board of Education, County Executive, and County Council levels, the goal of this panel is to take a serious, non-partisan look at the education funding needs, not only in the short-term, but in the long-term – and make recommendations for the public and the elected officials to consider. Education is the number one economic development engine in any community/county. Doing all we can as a community to take a proactive look into the challenges, and making recommendations to meet those challenges, is paramount.
