An independent review of Prince George’s County Public Schools last fall found a slew of problems–inflated graduation rates, too many excused absences and overly lax grading, just to name a few. Now, Maryland’s Governor Hogan is calling for the district’s school CEO Kevin Maxwell to be dismissed. What has Maxwell been doing to address the problems pervading the county’s public schools? Will he be able to inspire confidence in his leadership and the county’s public school system? We discuss the investigation and future of Prince George’s County Public Schools with Maxwell himself.
