[quote=Anonymous]We got one. My work and my kids' grandparents (our childcare) are close to one particular school, which is 45 minutes from our home. I simply stated that if my kids went to their home school, they would be in before and after care for several hours, which was a financial strain for us. If they went to the other school, their grandparents would care for them during that time. Also, if one child got sick at school, I would not be able to leave work within a reasonable time, but one of the grandparents could be there within 5 minutes. I didn't lay it on thick or claim that the COSA was our only option, but explained why going to the other school was in the best interests of my children. I think it helped that the school in our neighborhood is more "desirable" while the school we wanted to change to was Title I. In any case, those were our reasons, and the COSA was approved.[/quote]
