Parents of students at Pointer Ridge Elementary School are pushing back against a Prince George's County Public School boundary revision proposal that would close their school.
to keep the school open, said Pointer Ridge is community-driven and the teachers have always cared about the children. She trusts the teachers with her second-grade son, who has Tourette syndrome and whose tics, or involuntary movements and vocal outbursts, worsen when he’s anxious.
“I’m really concerned because he’s finally settled into a routine after the pandemic at school,” she said. “I’m really thinking we can have a good turnaround year, because he’s falling a little bit behind from last year and the pandemic … but that will be derailed by a new school.”Goldson will make changes to the proposal before it’s presented to the board.
Sammy Pulliam, a parent of a third-grader at Whitehall Elementary School in Bowie, recommended that no schools in the area be consolidated as chair of the District 5 Boundary Task Force.
