InfoMichael L. Subin is serving his fifth term as a Montgomery County Councilmember. He has served as Chairman of the Education Committee throughout his service. He also is a member of the Public Safety Committee.

Since his election to the Council, Mr. Subin has made advocacy for children his top priority. He has worked with the Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS) and the Board of Education to secure adequate funding for school programs while consistently fulfilling his oversight role to ensure that our schools are meeting the needs of the children and parents they serve. He is an avid supporter of the Global Access Technology project, and he frequently visits local schools and participates in "read-aloud" programs with the kids.

In response to growing public concern, Mr. Subin created the Community Education Round Table, bringing together the school system; Montgomery College; various community, religious, and ethnic groups; parents;and others to identify and develop programs that assist students in becoming college ready. Further, he convened the meeting that ultimately led to the establishment of the Corporate Partnership for Managerial Excellence (CPME), a unique partnership between MCPS and the private sector that utilizes private sector professional expertise to assess and improve administrative procedures throughout the school system. The end result of this partnership is increased financial resources for the classroom through increased efficiency in school operations.

Perhaps his greatest achievement to date has been the establishment of the Linkages To Learning (LTL) program. LTL is a collaborative effort between numerous public and private agencies to provide a variety of social services (health care, counseling, language skills, day care, and parenting skills) to help children and their families improve performance and behavior in school, at home, and in the community. Mr. Subin was instrumental in developing LTL programs in eight local schools, and he is currently working to increase the number of sites and to expand the program.

Mr. Subin is very active throughout the County and serves on the Board for the Jewish Social Service Agency, the Jewish Community Center, and the Boy's and Girl's Club of Greater Washington. He is also a lifetime member of the Men's Club of the Hebrew Home, the NAACP, and the Montgomery County Council of Parent-Teacher Associations, and a board member of the Treatment and Learning Centers and the Jewish Council of the Aging (Chair, Misler Senior Daycare Advisory Committee). He recently was asked and accepted an invitation to sit on the Board of Visitors of the Maryland Shock Trauma Center in Baltimore.

Mr. Subin is currently an adjunct professor at American University - Washington College of Law and a Captain in the United States Naval Reserves. He received his B.A. in International Affairs from George Washington University in 1971, holds a Master's degree from George Washington University in both Public Administration and Legislative Affairs and received a Juris Doctor at American University's School of Law in December 1998. He was admitted to the Maryland Bar in June 1999.
