• Anne Arundel County redistricting plan challenged by parents (thebaltimorebanner.com) — Crofton parents have formally appealed Anne Arundel County’s new school redistricting plan to the Maryland State Board of Education, arguing it’s based on faulty data and flawed procedures. Their challenge centers on a decision that would shift some Gambrills students from the Crofton Middle/Crofton High feeder pattern to Arundel schools, which they say harms students and ignores community input.
