Wednesday, January 30, 2008 at 6:30 p.m. in the Calvert High School Auditorium
Monday, February 11, 2008 at 6:30 p.m. in the Huntingtown High School Auditorium


Individuals will be given one minute to speak and those speaking for a group will be given two minutes. Speakers must register on-site prior to the hearing.

Written testimony will be accepted until February 18, 2008 and can be sent to:

Prince Frederick, MD 20678
A Redistricting Committee, composed of school system officials, a representative from Calvert County Planning and Zoning, and one parent from each of the five affected elementary schools, prepared two possible redistricting plans. The two options were presented to the Board of Education at their work session on January 10, 2008. Based on comments from the public, the Board of Education may make modifications prior to the adoption of a final plan in March 2008.

The elementary schools that will be affected are Calvert, Huntingtown, Mutual, Plum Point and St. Leonard.
