Controversies
On October 27, 2023, Cecil County Public Schools alerted affected fine arts teachers their programs may be cut the following school year because the county executive was developing a budget that would slash CCPS funding, in turn cutting funding for the Fine Arts to the minimum required by Maryland law. This caused outrage amongst students, parents, and the greater community, including actions taken across social media and planning mass public uproar at upcoming Board of Education meetings and town hall events.
