Coffee with the Superintendent Returns in November

Dr. Brenda McCartney, Superintendent of Schools, will hold two “Coffee with the Superintendent” opportunities for parents, guardians, and community members in November. The first Coffee with the Superintendent is scheduled for Tuesday, November 18, 2025, at the Dennett Road Educational Complex in the Community Room, and the second is scheduled for Friday, November 21, 2025, at Northern Middle School in the Community Room. Both meetings will be held from 8:15 AM to 9:30 AM.

Coffee with the Superintendent is a way for parents, guardians, and community members to share ideas, ask questions, and discuss the future of the school district in a relaxed, informal setting. During the November sessions, the Superintendent will be available to listen, answer questions, and gather community feedback on the school system’s Weighted Student Funding Waivers, which will be discussed at the November Board of Education meeting.

These events are open to all parents, guardians, and community members interested in Garrett County Public Schools.
