Education funding reform is a hot topic this year. At the MACo Winter Conference, representatives from Maryland’s large counties will digest more than just a delicious lunch at their annual MACo Large County Coalition Winter Conference Luncheon – they will also take in updates on the work of the 21st Century School Facilities Commission (Knott Commission) and the Maryland Commission on Innovation & Excellence in Education (Kirwan Commission).
In addition, Senator Jim Rosapepe will present legislation he plans to introduce this

session to reform the State’s school construction process and increase the financial capacity of local jurisdictions to build and renovate schools.
The MACo Large County Coalition Winter Conference Luncheon takes place on Thursday, December 7 from 11:45 am to 1 pm. RSVPs are requested to Prince George’s County Council Member Mel Franklin at mfranklin1@co.pg.md.us or 301-952-3820.
