Dear MCPS Community,
National chain Dollar Tree, which has MoCo locations in Derwood, Gaithersburg, Germantown, Montgomery Village, Rockville, and Silver Spring, has raised the price of all items in their stores from $1 to $1.25.
According to Market Watch, Dollar Tree says the higher prices are not a result of inflation, but rather to allow the company to offer a wider range of merchandise.

The Montgomery County Association of Administrators and Principals released a letter today asking MCPS to pause and “take the pulse” of the COVID-19 crisis in MCPS schools to develop strategies to deal with staff shortages, transportation issues, and testing.
In the letter, MCAAP expresses their dissatisfaction with how MCPS is handling the pandemic and states, “locally and nationally, MCPS has always been a school district that others have looked up to as a model. Unfortunately, it is our belief that due to poor communication and lack of a cohesive, consistent plan, we no longer hold that elite status.”
