They're going to expand it by adding another building behind it. And yes, McNair is absolutely overcrowded and hurts the ratings of other schools by taking away the brightest kids. I love how people assume high ratings = something magical about the school and not a function of inheriting the local cream of the crop. Imagine how school ratings would look like if you took scores for AAP out.

He is great - very hands on, very visible around the school.

We also got a new AP this year since Belch retired. She is very responsive too. My DD had a problem with a bully and the new AP called me to say they were on it and to not hesitate to contact her if more help was needed.

We love Providence!
