Public Comment
Public comment is one of the most important ways for our community to share feedback, raise concerns, and help guide decision-making in both our schools and county government. It provides residents with a structured opportunity to have their voices heard by leaders who make policy and budgetary decisions that affect every student, family, and community member. Let's learn more.
Department of Capital Planning
The Department of Capital Planning is responsible for developing strategic, long-range plans that guide school construction, renovations, and facility use across the district. This team plays a vital role in enrollment forecasting, school boundary analysis, capacity studies, site planning, and more. Their work forms the foundation of every redistricting recommendation and capital investment.
The department’s webpage contains valuable resources including:
- School enrollment and capacity data
- Facility planning documentation
- Boundary change procedures
- Ongoing project updates

Board of Education of St. Mary’s County
The Board of Education of St. Mary’s County governs and oversees the operation of our public school system. It consists of five elected members and one nonvoting student representative. The Board sets policy, monitors performance, and ensures that the needs of students and families are prioritized across all decisions—including school construction and boundary planning.

Whether you can attend in person or need to catch up later, our commitment to transparency ensures that you’ll always be able to hear the discussion and see the data for yourself.
