The Board of Education oversees operating and capital budgets totaling over five billion dollars. As a board member, I will require data, ask questions, and develop policies, to direct dollars to the most effective areas. Goals and expected outcomes of initiatives must be tracked, include scheduled reviews, and adjustments or discontinuance if the stated metrics cannot be achieved. I will hold myself and MCPS accountable to taxpayers and the school community.
I will rebuild trust in the community by partnering with students, families, teachers, staff, children’s advocacy groups, the county council, state legislators, government agencies, businesses, Board of Education members, and other impacted groups.

I will rebuild trust in the community by partnering with students, families, teachers, staff, children’s advocacy groups, the county council, state legislators, government agencies, businesses, Board of Education members, and other impacted groups. I welcome new ideas and will consider viewpoints that might differ from my own without compromising my overarching goal of providing all students with an excellent, equitable education.
MCPS must regain the trust of school communities and the public. Communication needs to be clear, accessible, honest, and timely. The Board of Education can and must ensure that MCPS develops and follows an Open Data policy for this public institution, including, but not limited to the budget, education, and facility data.

MCPS must regain the trust of school communities and the public. Communication needs to be clear, accessible, honest, and timely. The Board of Education can and must ensure that MCPS develops and follows an Open Data policy for this public institution, including, but not limited to the budget, education, and facility data. We can only address what we know about. Open Data allows the public to track and report things that are important to them and to the success of our schools.
Welcome to the website of Laura Stewart:
I am a proud mom of two children and have lived in Montgomery County for 27 years. My children are recent MCPS graduates, had wonderful teachers, and had access to extraordinary programs in STEM and the arts. I’ve been serving in volunteer leadership positions in PTA and other local boards for over ten years, leading efforts to ensure excellent opportunities for all kids in the county and Maryland.
I’m running for the Board of Education because I want to bring a culture of accountability, collaboration, and transparency to the board! I’ve worked with students, teachers, staff, parents, community leaders, and legislators for years to improve outcomes for all of our children. Our youth have so much to give to our county and they inspire me every day. We cannot let constant controversies and lack of oversight weaken our system. It’s time for the board to take a more active role and help MCPS get back to concentrating on preparing the next generation for their futures.
I’ve been honored to serve Montgomery County as a tireless, passionate volunteer and I will be just as honored to serve you as an elected member of the Montgomery County Board of Education.
Sincerely,
Laura Stewart
