There will be changes coming to the attendance zones for many Baltimore County elementary schools
The Baltimore County Board of Education voted Tuesday to alter the boundaries for 19 central-area elementary schools in an effort to ease overcrowding
The elementary schools impacted are Carroll Manor
The board voted unanimously to adopt the changes
More | SEE THE MAP
“The purpose for this boundary study was to relieve schools projected to be overcrowded and to maximize use of available space in schools until more seats can be added in the region through the capital program,” BCPS chief operations officer Jess Grim said
a committee recommended “Option C2.” Almost 400 students will be impacted
Some residents questioned whether the new boundaries will actually solve the overcrowding issue
The policy is not really correcting the issue
The teachers are already telling you they are overburdened
overworked and short-staffed,” one attendee said at Tuesday’s meeting
Paul Taylor is the director of strategic planning for BCPS
“The parents did express their concerns about whether kids could stay
but they also expressed concerns about their school staying overcrowded
So the committee took all that into consideration when it made the decision,” Taylor said
He said he is confident in the board’s decision and the work of the committee
“(The committee) is parents and teachers
met with the community and spoke with the public
and they came to a good decision,” Taylor said
The new boundaries will go into effect next school year

2013 at 3:28 am ET.css-79elbk{position:relative;}The Baltimore County Board of Education again voted unanimously to approve the construction of a 700-seat elementary school at Mays Chapel Park
"I feel that my interest must lie primarily with the students of Baltimore County," said board President Larry Schmidt
"I frankly don't know when a gathering of little children to learn has come to be such a perceived threat to one's way of life."
The school is intended to alleviate overcrowding issues at elementary schools along the York Road corridor
primarily senior residents living in a condo community close to the site
argued that the school would bring about issues including traffic and environmental concerns
The Baltimore County Council unanimously voted in favor of a resolution on Jan. 23 approving the swap of a 10-acre wooded area of the Mays Chapel Park property and the adjacent 10-acre property made up of ballfields that is owned by the Baltimore County Public Schools system
The Mays Chapel site was initially approved by the Baltimore County Board of Education last year
sent the process back for a second hearing after it ruled that the county board violated state law pertaining to legal notice requirements for the March 19
I take ultimate responsibility for that failure," Schmidt said
The state Department of Natural Resources must also approve the deal because of open space easements on the county's parcel
Those easements are expected to be transferred over to the new parcel

It is with humble hearts that we announce the passing of John James Mays
a few short weeks shy of his 96th birthday
John was the eldest son and last surviving child of Myrtle (née Boyle of Dawn Mills near Dresden) and James Xavier Mays of Chatham
cared for him while his health failed over the last years of his life
Loving and devoted father to his children from his first marriage
Cherished grandfather to his grandchildren Gillian (Wes)
He leaves two great-grandchildren Theodore and Willa
He will be missed by his brother-in-law Bob Rupcich (Diane) as well as his nieces
John was raised in Chatham where he attended school and worked in his father’s candy store
He attended Assumption Boarding School in Windsor for the last year of his secondary school education where he met his lifelong friend
John’s early career took many adventurous turns
He started his professional life as a teacher at St
then moved on to making candy at the Nestle factory in Smith Falls
When his aunt and her family invited John to visit them in California
He enjoyed many adventures in California and
had he been able to register as a legal immigrant
he obtained employment at Ford Motor Company of Canada where he worked as a draftsman at Ford Body Engineering
He worked at Ford for 35 years and with great competency transitioned with the automobile industry’s adoption of both plastics and CADCAM
John had the pleasure of witnessing three “acorns” he had planted with his children and watch them grow to fruition
The first acorn he planted was the love and value of education
His children all earned professional designations and have continued to seek learning opportunities in every corner
The second acorn was obtaining a remote property in the late 1950s on Georgian Bay
He then cleared a trail to the cottage and developed that trail into a road with stone and dirt
so that the family car could eventually access the cottage
grandchildren and now great-grandchildren all have enjoyed
The final acorn planted by John was a love of skiing
Knowing nothing about the sport other than it looked to be a fun family activity for the winter
he bought (on sale) inappropriate equipment and a “how to” book
From that first effort he quickly learned that better equipment and education was needed
With the tenacity and resourcefulness required before the internet
he found a ski school in Eastern Quebec and got all his children appropriate equipment
starting his family on a lifelong love of the sport
His daughter loved skiing so much she and her family live part-time in Whistler
John’s family will enjoy the shade of the “oak trees” he planted for many years to come
John was a member of the Knights of Columbus
John’s family wishes to thank the staff at Heron Terrace Care Home
for the exemplary care and dignity which they shared with John
Visitation will occur at Windsor Chapel Funeral Home (Banwell Chapel) 11677 Tecumseh Rd
Parish and Knights of Columbus prayers at 7:30 pm
Family and friends will be received on Monday
for visitation from 10:00 am until time of John's Funeral Mass at 11:00 am

She passed surrounded by the presence of loving family members
and reminiscing upon favorite childhood and recent memories
She smiled as she breathed her last breath
Mac and Donald Sellers and sisters Ada Greer and Mary Dykes
and proud great-grandmother to seven (Addie
and beloved as a friend and encourager by countless others
Doris's husband of sixty-one years
beside whom she will be buried at Hamblen Memory Gardens in Morristown
Doris supported her husband for many years as a minister's wife at many churches in East Tennessee and Indiana
Doris continued this ministry of encouragement to her son
who pastors Mays Chapel Baptist Church in Bear Creek
and sing at the various churches of Earl's and Gregory's ministries
Doris's Christian faith was and is immensely important to her
Doris always looked forward to her favorite times of year (Christmas and Easter) and getting her children
and herself dressed in their "Sunday best" for church each week
Doris attended the Keplar school in Rogersville
where her best friends called her by her beloved nickname "Cue-ball." Her beautiful snow-white hair
She also graduated from business college and helped her husband start
and maintain their home-based laundry and dry cleaning equipment sales
where Doris handled the accounting and business aspects of the family business
Doris also had training as a nurse and volunteered for many years at various public schools within the Hamblen Co.
Doris had a dogged determination to live life to the fullest and lit up every room she was in—taking the time to make others (especially
those going through hard times) experience the happiness and joy that burst forth from her heart as a child of God
Doris loved her family more than her own life—second only to Jesus
She would sacrifice so much to make sure the bills were paid
and said their prayers and were ready for church on Sunday mornings
Doris was a faithful attender to her children and grandchildren's school events
She would even wake up at 4am to take her son Gregory hunting and fishing when his dad was out of town for business so Gregory could go deer
She wouldn't hunt with him but would sit in the car on those chilly fall and winter mornings—reading her Bible or another of her favorite books—until Gregory was through hunting
Her life on their family's farm in Rogersville
TN (not to mention having two brothers) made Doris into a rough-and-tumble "Tomboy," who would give as much as she got
She was right at home on a riverbank with a cane pole in her hand
catching worms and fish as she was getting "dolled-up" for a date with her husband
She took pride in the well-being of herself and her family—aspiring to the values of the proverbial "Proverbs 31 woman." You could say that Doris was deeply dedicated to her Lord and to the flourishing of her family
During an especially difficult decade in her life
who suffered from lupus and helped care for her grandchildren during this time
Doris's heart always considered the needs of others above her own and sacrificed much for the sake of others (Phil 2:3–5)
and her attitude was that of Christ Jesus (Phil 2:5)
Doris will always be remembered not only for her love for her family
but also her "fur babies." Her beloved cats (Tom
and others) were fed like kings and queens
with Doris rescuing many abandoned pets and giving them a great life—boiling chicken and other "gourmet meals" for her pets
Doris was a great cook and no person attending dinner or a Thanksgiving
and her love for her family and friends translated into the delicious meals and desserts she made
many of her favorite recipes have been preserved in the cookbooks of her children and grandchildren
She would always make an extra pie for her husband and son to eat with a cold glass of milk
Doris's family would like to extend a heartfelt message of thanks to the staff of CCH
and Brookdale Pinehurst for their care and treatment of Doris
