  1. City envy in the county schools

    Baltimore City's schools are Maryland's oldest, and Baltimore County's are the second-oldest. The problems posed by the aging facilities in the two jurisdictions are different — the city has an overabundance of underused buildings, while the county has for years been dealing with overcrowding in one region or another — but the first step toward a solution, county schools officials hope, may be the same: developing a comprehensive modernization plan. The city school system hired a consultant to help it evaluate its buildings and decide which should be closed, which renovated and which rebuilt, and that helped pave the way for state approval of a novel, $1 billion funding stream. The county has now hired a consultant of its own, but parents who are hoping for a similarly sweeping effort in the county shouldn't get too excited just yet.
