[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've never heard of an appeal being successful. MCPS is allowed to set its own criteria and they say a child has to pass all parts of the exam. Your daughter didn't. There is no "right" to attend kindergarten at taxpayer expense before statutory age. [/quote] Don't get me started on "rights" and "taxpayer expenses". We pay our taxes and didn't qualify for public pre-k for our kids because we make more money than the poverty line. Explain that right to me. [/quote] Welcome to life in society. The same way you pay taxes to support SNAP, WIC, TANF, SSI, Section 8, Medicaid, Medicare, and hundreds of other government-funded programs with eligibility criteria you might not meet. If you would like to quit your job and set fire to your money so your kids can llive in housing projects and go to Head Start, there's nothing except sanity stopping you. [/quote]
