Mcps Form 335 45 PDF Details

Understanding and navigating the process for a change of school assignment within the Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS) system is crucial for parents or guardians seeking the best educational fit for their children. The MCPS 335 45 form, known as the Request for Change of School Assignment (COSA), is a critical document in this process. This form allows parents or guardians to initiate a request to transfer their child to a different school for various reasons, including hardship, a sibling attending the requested school, continuation in a feeder pattern absent a boundary change, or due to a family move. It outlines specific deadlines, with requests to be submitted between February 1 and April 1 for the following school year, and emphasizes the importance of adhering to these timelines as late applications are generally not processed. Additionally, the form specifies that if the request is approved, transportation will not be provided by MCPS, and there may be limitations on participation in high school interscholastic athletics for one year. The submission process involves both the parent or guardian completing part of the form and discussions with the principal of the current school, who must verify residency and does not necessarily agree or disagree with the request but confirms the discussion took place. Following this, the request could be further reviewed by the Disciplinary Review and School Assignment Unit, requiring documentation for extenuating circumstances if needed. If denied, the form details the appeal process, which includes submitting a written statement with reasons and any additional information within a set timeframe to the Office of the Chief Operating Officer. This form is not just a piece of paperwork; it represents a pathway for families seeking alternatives to their assigned school for reasons that align with MCPS regulations and policies.
