subject: Montgomery County Public Schools Educational Foundation Providing Excellent Opportunities [print this page] The Montgomery County, Maryland education system sets the standard for providing the highest level of education for their students, while inspiring excellence in their faculty and administrative staff. These standards of quality within the Montgomery County public schools pass from the faculty to the students and from the students out into the community. In todays economy maintaining this exceptional level of quality and inspired involvement in the community is getting harder and harder to support. State and local budget cuts have taken their toll on the Montgomery County public school system and if the funds continue to shrink will causes adverse effects for the students, inhibiting them from reaching their full potential.
The Montgomery County Public Schools Educational Foundation, Inc. was created to solve these issues within the Montgomery County education system. With various forms of funding provided to Montgomery County public schools, this foundation provides the hope that is needed for the future of the students within the community. The parents and teachers alike highly value the quality of the resources that are provided within the schools, striving to provide each student with the most resources needed in order to provide the most adequate materials for appropriate learning. This foundation gives these teachers and parents the faith in the educational system they need in ensuring their children an appropriate education that is the best they are able to receive.
Public schools are always at risk of losing funding for one reason or another. There is state level or federal level funding cutbacks, and even budget cuts that cause great decreases in the amount available for utilization on school resources. This diminishes the influence of the Montgomery County public schools, preventing them from reaching their goals in education to the countys students, and preventing the students from getting the education they deserve from the Montgomery County education system. Each students deserves to have the same opportunities whether they are paying for school or receiving a free public education, and the Montgomery County Public Schools Educational Foundation, Inc. fully promotes and encourages this concept providing many resources to public schools within the county that otherwise could not be obtained.
The Foundation is not only providing the hope the schools and parents need in order to trust the Montgomery County education system, they are providing the chances for expanded learning that many times arent available to all students. Some students are denied a proper education due to lack of funding and the MCPS Foundation understands that all students should have the same adequate education that is provided to any other student.
When students arent able to access the materials and resources needed for adequate learning, they are held back severely, sometimes preventing advancement causing gaps in education and loss of motivation. This can cause many students to lose faith in the educational system, but not the Montgomery County education system. With the full support of the MCPS Foundation, there is a strong structure holding the public schools within the county together and giving opportunities to those that otherwise would be without. It is a new chance for a bright future all students deserve.
