OP, I totally disagree with this PP.

People say this on DCUM all the time - that you won't get a COSA.  There are 5 students in DD's first grade class that have COSAs.  Some got them in previous years, but two got them this year.  One for child care reasons and one for a sibling issue.  One was denied when the mom first applied, but then was given the COSA on appeal.

Also, if you have any friends or family who live in the ES you want to be in, ask around.  Often, you can ask if they'll let you do a shared housing, where you just use their address to attend.  Again, we have several of those at our school also.  They just change a few bills to their family member's address and use that to attend the ES.  [/quote]

Don't listen to this PP.  S/he is advocating fraud.[/quote]

Please.  That doesn't mean it doesn't happen ALL. THE. TIME.  People do what they think is best for their kids.  MCPS has no way of proving where every single kid lives, so it continues to occur in quite a few ESs.

You can say 'not to listen', but OP was looking for options, so I responded.  I'm not doing it myself, so don't get mad at me.  Just commenting that it does go on and it can be an option for people willing to try it.  [/quote]
