Subject: RE: Proposal for new WABE production schedule

Chris -Thanks very much for arranging for the new WABE guide. Unfortunately, we will not have a chance to participate thisyear. We have suffered very severe budget cuts, including in our office, and it seems that the workload is onlyincreasing. Our FY 12 budget will be very difficult to bring in. The County Council also has launched three separatecommissions to study how we can improve our operations, which is consuming nearly all our time, because they aredemanding extensive research into everything we do going back ten years. Unfortunately, we just don't have theresources to complete the WABE survey this year. Hopefully, we will be able to participate in the future. We greatlyappreciate the WABE guide and its value to all the districts. But I just don't have any choice this year.If there is any way I can help short of filling out the survey, I will do my best given our other problems. I have reviewed theissue with members of our Board of Education and with our superintendent and they understand the constraints that weface.MarshallMarshall C.

Just for your information, it is my understanding that Montgomery County will not be participating this year inthe WABE group due to budget and workload issues.
