[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You make a fair point, but to me, the compelling reason is just that taxpayers want the service.  Further, the service already exists.  There is just excess demand in some areas.  Moreover, I'm not expecting it to be gratis or anything...it just makes sense for a program to be right at the school.  The school has obvious appropriate facilities like fields, playground and gym that make it desirable.  Also, I'm not sure the market is filling the gap.  Where I am there are only a few options.

I'm not suggesting there is some entitlement to this, just that it is a good idea and I wonder if anyone knows whether the issue has really been pushed with the county, either the school system or county government.[/quote]

Fairfax County Board of Supervisors' Chairman Sharon Bulova is the one to ask. She was a proponent of a proposal to have another (out-sourced) provider for SACC so more students could be served.

That proposal failed, but she has been working on the issue for a while.[/quote]
