Delays in licensing before/after care at new PGCPS schools
Prince George's County
Summary
Before/after care vendors at new schools can't start their DPIE and state approvals until the school system gets its own permits — sometimes as late as July — pushing a 90-day process past the start of school. Families are left scrambling to find care. The workgroup is backing a fix to run these processes in parallel.
