I think everyone who gets an unwanted robocall should Tweet Dr. Starr about it. Perhaps he would then Tweet back about how to opt out of robocalls?

Another small annoyance during peak witching hour time, when odds are high that I'm grumpy already due to homework battles, toddler meltdown, end of day fatigue, etc...

So, I'd rather pass, thank you.

This is OP. Three times is too many, email+phone is too much. It's stopping whatever I'm doing to go and check the phone that's the annoyance. They set these things to go off at 6 and 7 pm, which is a very buy time in our household. It's one more thing I don't need to deal with. Bell times didn't get as much push nor did anything having to do with the waiver or even snow days. It's overkill.

I was wondering the same thing.

It took me more time to read your post complaining about the robocall than to listen to the beginning of the robocall and then hang up on it. (And yes, it took me even more time to type this response.)

If MCPS didn't do this, people would complain that MCPS hadn't informed them.

It is a resource fair for all families, not just families who speak English and/or Spanish.
