Coalition for Better Montgomery PAC has endorsed Stephen Austin for the at-large seat on the Montgomery County Board of Education (BOE). Mr. Austin has demonstrated his dedication to improving education for all kids through his founding of the Facebook group, Montgomery County MD Neighbors for Local Schools, which currently has 7,500 members. As a MCPS parent with two school aged kids, Mr. Austin will bring the much needed parent perspectives to the board. He wants to return accountability to parents and the community. With his financial expertise, Mr. Austin has innovative ideas to solve the MCPS budget challenges. He truly believes that the opportunity gap can be closed without negatively impacting working families. We are proud to support Stephen Austin in his campaign to have great local schools for all. More endorsements coming soon!
