[quote=Anonymous]I work in MCPS and my kids have a COSA. It doesn’t matter what your reasons are—the VAST majority are denied (as well they should be—most are junk). Some are real hardships, and sometimes those are approved, especially when the parents have limited opportunities and the school staff get involved. The trick, if there is one, is to appeal. And the appeal again. Once the office sees that you’re not giving up, it gets approved and they move to the next case. But you will be put through the wringer for your appeal. Be prepared to submit tons of evidence and have your life be scrutinized. I seen ridiculous cases be approved, just because the parents didn’t stop appealing.[/quote]
