PRINCE WILLIAM COUNTY, Va. – Frustration over overcrowded classrooms at Covington-Harper Elementary School resurfaced this week as parents called on the Prince William County School Board to revisit rezoning plans that could ease conditions at the Dumfries-area school.

During the October 1 School Board meeting, a parent accused the board and Superintendent LaTanya McDade of “choosing personal opinions over students” by refusing to rezone Covington-Harper. The parent urged members to act or face a “vote of no confidence” from families concerned about student safety and learning conditions.
