New elementary eases crowding in Montgomery County (Md.) district

From The Washington Post: The newest school in the Montgomery County (Md.) district, Flora M. Singer Elementary, is now open in Silver Spring, and adds much-needed classroom space to a rapidly growing school system. District officials expect enrollment to top 149,000 students this fall. The opening of Singer provides relief for Oakland Terrace Elementary, which a district spokesman describes as “terribly, terribly overcrowded.”
