Thanks, Robin

in lieu of digging up old threads I will summarize what I know here.
Policy differs from district to district nationally.
Depending on what district you go to you will get one of 3 answers.
a) absolutely positively not a chance - that is what happens in my district. It would take a legal challenge to make it reverse. Total brick wall.
b) maybe - are you willing to do the work to sooth the powers that be.
c) absolutely yes - love to have them around. There are plenty of instances of that happening.
I know that was a completely useless answer but that is pretty much the state of affairs. Hopefully you have a (c) or you could work through a (b). If you have an (a) it would take a LOT of work to get it challenged, willing families and lawyers,e tc.
The issue comes up all the time in other activities such as sports, football, etc.
