Controversy Surrounds Prince George's County Exec's School Board Appointments

“When politicians make decisions that have nothing to do with students, our entire system suffers,” Burroughs said. Under state law, the county executive can appoint the chair and vice chair. Two years ago, Alsobrooks allowed the board to choose the vice chair, and it selected Burroughs. In a letter to Alsobrooks, seven board members requested Burroughs be reappointed. “If seven out of nine elected members are requesting to appoint someone as vice chair, I would think that any person who wants this to work would listen to that,” he said. Alsobrooks responded with a letter saying elected member Sonja Williams was her choice and went on to say, “As we recover from this pandemic, we have urgent business ahead of us, so I respectfully request that we keep our conversations and efforts focused on our children, their parents and the teachers who educate them. Put plainly, I’m only interested in talking about the success of our kids and not expanding, protecting or respecting political power.”
