Share Your Priorities for the FY2027 School Budget

The Prince George’s County Board of Education wants your input as we plan for the future of our schools! We’re working on the Fiscal Year 2027 Operating Budget, and your voice matters.

Please take a few minutes to complete a short survey to let us know your top five priorities for school funding. Your feedback will help shape the Board’s recommendations and ensure our budget reflects what matters most to our students, families, and community.

Inside the Classroom: Accelerating Math Proficiency

Inside our Math Learning Labs, teachers learn from teachers, observing high-quality math instruction in classrooms, then bringing those strategies back to their own students.

Every student can be a mathematician, problem solver and innovator. In 2026, PGCPS students made meaningful gains in math proficiency across grades 3–8, outpacing the state’s overall improvement. We’re building on that momentum with an ambitious goal: to double the percentage of students demonstrating math proficiency over the next two years.

Celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month

For Hispanic Heritage Month, we are honoring the rich traditions and contributions of our Hispanic and Latino students, families, and staff.

Meet Dulce Santos, a PGCPS alumna, Latina, and immigrant serving as a Multilingual Family Engagement Specialist. Dulce brings her lived experience to work every day—breaking down language barriers and empowering our families.

Meet Arthur Mola, bilingual son of Cuban immigrants who now serves students and their families as principal of Bladensburg High School. He believes that language is more than just a way to communicate – it is a source of identity, connection and power.
