[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know lots of RM families live outside the West End, but they are trying to mobilize a campaign in the City of Rockville about this issue.  Advice from an email I received about it:

The West End Citizens Association will work to oppose the weakening of the APFO beginning with a request to delay the schedule to allow citizens enough time to understand the issue and get involved.  However, many officers and block captains are older and do not have children in the schools. The voices who will really matter are the parents with children in the schools. If you are concerned, then here are actions that you need to take:
·     [b]Speak at Community Forum on December 17th.  Let the Mayor and Council know that the schedule is unfair to citizens, that it needs to be delayed and that you are opposed to allowing increased overcrowding in schools.[/b]
·     Testify at the Public Hearing on January 7th.  
·     Speak to your friends who have children in Rockville schools and ask them to speak at Community Forum and testify on January 7th.  NUMBERS MATTER.  Without a public outcry, there is little chance that this can be stopped. 
·     Get in touch with your PTA and get them to take a stand.
·     Come to the WECA Board meeting on Thursday, December 13that Bar Louie, 7 pm. Help get the community organized. [/quote]

I will focus on bold part here. [/quote]
