Some people appear to be unhappy with the selection of this option. https://www.change.org/p/arlington-county-school-board-arlington-public-schools-integration |

HA!
Turns out this thread is completely useless, because they used outdated projection numbers and were off by 100's. They projected Yorktown would have approx. 2100 students in 2021. Now they are saying they will have 2800!!! And WL will only have 2100. What the hell is going on? |

Not PP, but the numbers are from APS: http://www.apsva.us/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/For-Web-PDF-Demographic-Analysis-of-HS-Boundary-Changes-1-5-16-v3.pdf |

| Has APS addressed this? They took evenly attended schools and stuck 200 more in Yorktown instead? |

This is too funny. If part of the reason the numbers were so off was because of the consultants they paid to create the tool, we shoukd get a refund. |

Supposedly part of the explanation is that this is the Yorktown zone. The extra numbers are kids at HB, Career Center, Arlington Tech, or W-L IB program. Supposedly. |

Arlington Tech is ans will continue to draw heavily from WAKEFIELD. This is due to proximity and limousine liberalism. Lots of my neighbors were just fine with Wakefield, until they had another option. Don't expect it to appeal to Yorktown as heavily. |
