| Is it just Great Falls? Are feeder schools and their centers posted somewhere? I couldn't find anything on FCPS website? |

Thanks for quick response.

| Does anyone find it strange that CR only has one AAP school other than themselves and that feeder school has a LL AAP? And yet CR has 2-3 AAP classes per grade with 30 kids each? Is it just a factor of its size that it has so many AAP kids? |
I think it is related to geographic footprint. |
| I just think its strange that Colvin Run only has 1 other school feeding into it which is a LLIV AAP while Louise Archer has 7 and Sunrise Valley has 5. |

It is odd but the addition of the GT center brought more students from Great Falls to Colvin Run making the boundary change more attractive to those leaving Great Falls and Forestville . Springhill isn't a GT center but has level 4 with 186 out of 378 [49%] in grades 3-6. Great Falls has 94 in level 4. I wonder how many students are being bussed from these attendance areas:
Great Falls attendance area to Colvin Run Spring Hill attendance area to Churchill Rd Forestville attendance area to Forest Edge |
But look at the size of the footprints -- very similar sizes. Compare light pink for Colvin Run vs. light yellow for Sunrise Valley vs. light green for Louise Archer on the map: http://www.fcps.edu/fts/planning/maps/aap2011-2012/elementary.pdf |
