Westfield malls implement restrictions on teen autonomy

For many WCHS students, the Westfield Montgomery Mall has served as a place to shop, eat and spend time with friends. However, on Sept. 28, the Westfield Corporation implemented a new policy limiting teens after 3 PM at Westfield Montgomery and Westfield Wheaton. While the policy aims to increase the safety for shoppers, it has also raised questions about teen independence and its potential impacts on mall businesses. The official mall policy states that minors are barred from entering the mall after 3 PM unless they are with an adult. Supervising adults may also be asked to provide a valid form of identification, and can only accompany 4 minors at a time.

MCPS schools face closures as enrollment rates decline

“Too many schools, too few students,” a problem that MCPS is more than well aware of. For the first time in over 40 years, student enrollment in Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS) is declining, leading the Board of Education (BOE) to determine which schools should be shut down and consolidated. Due to declining birth rates and changes in demographics across the county, more schools are experiencing low attendance rates and more vacant space. The conversation around closing and consolidating schools has been thoughtfully looked at over the past couple of months, although MCPS has recently brought attention to the public.

Not letting fatigue set in, No. 6 Virginia visits old rival Maryland

A busy start hasn't slowed down No. 6 Virginia as it travels to Maryland for its first road test of the season on Friday night in College Park, Md. The contest between former conference rivals will be the fifth for the Cavaliers (4-0) and just the third for the Terrapins (1-1). Virginia has played twice since Maryland's most recent game. The Cavaliers boosted their season scoring average to 93.0 points per game with a breezy 95-61 home victory against Bucknell on Tuesday -- scoring the first 11 points, building a 22-point advantage at halftime and leading by as many as 37. Virginia finished with 12 3-pointers and 12 steals, reaching double figures in both categories for the fourth time in as many games. "We challenged our guys to be ready, and we talked a lot about how (when) people turn the TV on, or they choose to come to the game to watch us, are they going to get the same Virginia?" second-year coach Ryan Odom said after the team's fourth win in eight days. "Are they going to get Virginia in the way that we play? And I think for the most part we did (against Bucknell). That's a
