I think this is the same poster who posted a similar comment for Westbriar in the other thread. |

Can you elaborate? (I'm not trying to be snarky. I'd really like to know, as a parent who has this decision to make). |

| I'm confused - is Navy going to be a center or LLIV? |

| Navy will technically be a center. 3rd grade only for 2013-2014. The only school to feed into the center (other than Navy) is Crossfield. Crossfield also has a LLIV. It is expected that many Crossfield families will choose to stay at the LLIV. |

| I just heard that there are going to be 3 AAP 3rd grade classes, this upcoming year, so clearly a lot of Crossfield kids are coming to Navy. |

3 classes from 2 schools - that would mean they are still accepting quite a few kids into level IV this year.
What's the point in having a center for 2 schools, one of which is already LLIV? |

It all boils down to capacity issues. The closing of Hunters Woods as an AAP center has wreaked havoc on the Oakton Pyramid AAP programs. They are trying to decentralize it entirely, not on philosophical grounds, but rather because there is no one school that has the capacity for a full-blown AAP center. |

| Navy will become overcrowded very quickly. The school was at 100% full before the center. Will there be trailers this year? |

| Navy has 7 3rd grades this year, 3 AAP. That is hardly any different than Hunters Woods having 8 third grades last year. As far as capacity, I do think there will be trailers in a year or two. But there are only 4 Kinder classes, which is a drop--there are 6 first grade classes. |

| Yes, but the school is overcapacity this year. adding 3 AAP classes every year will be 12 extra classrooms (3,4,5,6) at a school already at capacity. Crossfield is way undercapacity and they are sending all their AAP kids to Navy. Navy has no rooms for trailers as their is only 1 field at the school, no extra room to grow and was just expanded in 2005, so no way they are going to be renovated. |

Is Hunters Woods going to close as an AAP center? Where is that info online? Kids will be going there this coming school year for AAP. |
