[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]According to the document on the MCPS site, the proposed changes to COSA policy were discussed in March and May Board meetings.  The mark-up documents are posted with the agenda advance of each meeting.  So nothing was "snuck in" in June.  And this is far from a new proposal - just untimely for some who fear their options will be limited.[/quote]

Part of the problem at these schools is the need to represent different communities who may have opposing views on this issue.  In the case of Westland, immersion parents might well be outnumbered by parents who are more concerned with overcrowding since immersion makes up a small percentage of the student community.  In the case of RCF, that school community used to be more immersion kids but now is more neighborhood kids.  So, how to represent immersion parents if the majority of parents are more supportive of dealing with overcrowding to include limiting COSAs?  I'm really not sure how that would be so easily handled.  Plus, how to justify telling the neighborhood that you must advocate against their interests because you house a county wide magnet program?[/quote]
