[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love RM parent.[/quote]

Me too.  can he present this for us to BOE? I'm a VM parent in favor of modified Option 4 sending my kid to WJ. [/quote]

Some one will present it, I can assure you.

Having said that, WJ has a well organized and strong PTA. Yes, some members may be a bit conflicted based on where they live, but presentation coming from WJ PTA will work the best. Then adding various HOAs in WJ and Wheaton cluster for support will be helpful. Easiest is to kick start this process by reaching out to your elementary school PTAs and. They are more clued to BOE, HS PTA compared to other parents. School sessions are ending but folks should be able to eletronically comnunicate and meet in some place informally to discuss. We did it in Rockville library and one of the HOAs having big hall during RM 5 boundary.

If anyone wants to speak as the PTA, then they have to have a general PTA meeting, get a quorum, and have the members vote. I know our school does not have the capacity to do that this summer. Maybe the Board is able to do that--get a quorum and vote--and they can speak as the Board. But you can't just speak as the PTA without presenting it to the community and taking a vote.[/quote]

WJ PTA has enough time to to do all that if they really want to do it officially as a PTA. Getting a quorum and vote will be pretty easy given how many families are interested in this.

In absence of that, just get elementary PTA members to get the ball rolling. Without offically presenting as PTA, those PTA members will be more familiar with BOE, MCPS and all process. Does not have to be in capacity of PTA, but the same people can help with this process due to knowing the system a bit more.
