Annual Report to General Assembly.

In 1998, the General Assembly created the Prince George's County Schools Management Oversight Panel (Chapter 565, Acts of 1998). The Panel directs efforts to improve accountability and performance in the Prince George's County public school system. Initially, the Panel assisted in determining the scope of a performance audit of the system. Now, the Panel is charged with monitoring the implementation of recommendations stemming from the performance audit and a financial audit of the system.

The Panel reviews and comments on the proposed annual school budget, and must be notified in advance by the County Board of Education about personnel actions involving senior staff, and substantial procurement actions. In 1999, the Panel additionally was mandated to participate in the hiring of the County Superintendent of Schools.

Authorization for the Panel continues until July 1, 2002 (Chapter 464, Acts of 1999).
