FACILITY UTILIZATION AND SCHOOL BOUNDARY STUDY “REDISTRICTING”
COMMUNITY SURVEY #1 OPEN

LEONARDTOWN, MD – St. Mary’s County Public Schools (SMCPS) is launching a process to develop a long-range Facility Utilization and School Boundary Study in partnership with the school and community stakeholders and seeks your input. The goal is to create a long-range plan for school boundary adjustments and future improvements at schools across the District to heighten educational opportunities for all SMCPS students. As part of this process, a community-wide survey will be used to collect community input on operational and facility factors being considered for the Facility Utilization and School Boundary Study.  

The survey will be available from September 26, 2025 to October 6, 2025.  The survey link can be found on the redistricting webpage: https://tripetto.app/run/DDFMWY796I.  The survey will take about 15 minutes to complete and includes a handful of questions that will help us ensure a representative voice from all SMCPS school communities is achieved.

The survey is open to all St. Mary’s County residents, including parents, students, employees, community members, and other stakeholders.

For more information, please visit our website (https://www.smcps.org/redistricting) where you will find information on the data, analysis, events, surveys, and information relating to the on-going study.  You will find a comprehensive frequently asked question section, as well as a way to submit comments and questions.
