That Time Of Year
Students Warned Of Freaking And Grinding Each year when homecoming or prom rolls around, the talk of appropriate behavior pops up. Just as it has for eons.

A Huge Thumbs Up To Annapolis High Panthers
Endangered No More, Annapolis High Exits Restructuring Plan Just over two years ago, the entire staff at Annapolis High School was on the chopping block for under-performance.

Report Cards For Anne Arundel County Schools
An Unfortunate Result With Narrow Columns (Click Image To Enlarge)
Kudos To High Schools
County Seniors Outshine Nation And State It has already been covered in The Capital, but when the County Schools keep exceeding previous scores and are consistently above Maryland and National averages, it never hurts to say it again. Hey Dr. Maxwell, how about an impromptu day off as a reward? To read the detailed results, […]
Can You Help Annapolis Middle School?
Annapolis Middle School needs 40 VCRs for its “Caring Communities” Do you have a VCR at home gathering dust?

Students Raise More Than $250,000
Anne Arundel County Students Jump Rope For Heart To The Tune Of A Quarter Million Dollars Even an economic downturn couldn’t dampen the generous spirits of school communities as students across the county raised $281,717.20 for the American Heart Association through Jump Rope for Heart events. “I am amazed at how the students and their […]
Anne Arundel County School Bus Routes
Bus Routes Will Not Be Published In The Capital Given the downturn in the economy, The Capital and Maryland Gazette newspapers have made the decision not to publish school bus schedules this year.

Back To School Outreach A Success
Almost 800 Attend First Event Eye On Annapolis missed the opportunity to announce the first event in a series of outreach programs sponsored by the Board of Education.

A Suggestion For The Board Of Education
Best practices for developing a school calendar Last week, I was speaking with a member of a School Board in Georgia and they have a great idea for handling snow days. Now granted, Georgia is not in the snow belt but this idea makes a LOT of sense. Hence why it has probably not been […]
Teachers Don’t Need A Union
Anne Arundel Teachers Need To Lose The Union Do our teachers really need a union to gain the respect they are seeking? Are they really that disrespected as a profession as it is? Last week, Mike’s Nether Land opined that indeed teachers might fare better to forego the union and garner the respect they crave […]

There were no serious injuries and mostly […]
BREAKING NEWS: 2 School Buses Crash In Riva
UPDATE: 3:47pm. Apparently after the driver who caused the accident gave his statement to the police, he was allowed to continue on his route in a new bus. Why doesn’t the school district require some sort of interrogation and a drug test after an accident like this? We are not saying that he was under […]

Apparently, in the wake of some recent suicides and suicide attempts, the school district sent home a sobering letter with students. In part, it reads: In recent months, the county has seen an increase in the number of suicide-related threats and suicides. It is critically important that all of us are on the lookout for […]
Hacking In North County
And although it is flu season we are talking about computers, kids, and grades. While trying to change your grade is by no means a new concept, I question how this happened with a school district that spends millions on cyber security? Chesapeake High School is trying to locate the students involved and to find […]
Curious Arguments at the Board of Education
Last week at the school board meeting (2/18/2009), Member Victor Bernson went on a rant about a piece of legislation before the General Assembly requiring insurance companies to cover some autism spectrum disorders under existing Maryland insurance policies.
