[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What about those of us who have preschoolers and aren't in APS yet but will be directly impacted by this? How do we participate other than checking the website every day for links to pop up for the schools near us?

I had no idea meetings had even started. [/quote]

Contact your civic association. Every PTA got two reps to the committee, and every civic association got two reps to the committee. [/quote]

Nope.  Some Civic Associations were not included, according to our president.  Can you please provide a link that says who is on the committee?[/quote]

All civic associations that are located within the 1 mile walk zone to an elementary school building were included in that building's workgroup. If your CA president wants to be included, tell him/her to call APS and I am sure they will include your CA. (Not trying to be snarky here... I'm on our CA board and all of this was really well publicized by APS and they seem to be bending over backwards to be inclusive.) https://www.apsva.us/elementary-school-boundary-change/walkzonereview/

Unfortunately, many of the CAs in our county are now headed by older residents because younger parents don't make the time to get involved. So it is also possible that an email was sent to your CA and nobody ever responded because these issues aren't a priority if you are a 75 year old empty nester. [/quote]
