[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm curious about this-if a child is old enough to be out and responsible in public (like a 9 or 10 yo usually is)...then what exactly can MCPS do if a 10 yo is sitting outside waiting to come into the school? Its still a free country last time I checked. [/quote] A "free country" doesn't mean the school system can't restrict who is on school property at given hours. MCPS doesn't want children there before they're ready to open the doors because if something happens to them, there's not one there to help them or take responsibility for the situation. But the parents will sue anyway, costing the district a lot of money in defense. [b]So yes, the school can tell you that your child can't be wandering the grounds before school is open for the day[/b].[/quote] Yes, the school can tell the OP that. But what if the OP (like many other parents) does it anyway? Then what?[/quote]
