| Translated - does this mean there will be trailers and modulars at elementary and middle schools, and redistricting to Wakefield? Or will the county build new schools? |

I suspect that's the substance of the meeting. Those trailers are awesome, BTW. Better than classrooms. |

| A friend told me that at one of the schools with trailers, the parents voted to keep the trailers rather than to make the classes bigger to fit in the existing fixed classrooms. I think this was at Jamestown (her school) but it could have been at my school (Nottingham). She said the kids think the trailers are "cool." |

though the last meeting 2-mo ago was a waste of time and i doubt moving at govt speed there'd be any real progress since then |

I did not attend, but noticed this morning that a slide presentation dated 11/29 is now posted on the website: http://www.apsva.us/capacity . Looks like some initial thoughts/diagrams on what expansion plans might look like for the various sites that were being studied.

the plan to build a new school adjacent to WMS has the most promise |
