[quote=Anonymous]The PTA has been discussing this at our last couple of meetings.  One proposal on the table is to add a bunch more trailers and increase the school to 5 classes/grade, which would be a significant shift from the current enrollment.  (3 classes some grades, 4 in others.)  I suggested that we should just counter with 4 classes per grade and hopefully hold off the 5 class idea - the school doesn't really have the infrastructure to go from a 534-kid school to the 750-kid school that has been proposed, without an addition.  (official capacity is 465.)

There is some talk of moving ATS, but we're fighting to keep it in a central location because we think that moving the school to a location far North would really discourage the South Arlington parents whose kids really benefit from the program.

I love the program and I'm glad we're there, but I admit, I'd be less likely to send my daughter there if it were located in Oakridge or Randolph or something.  (using these as examples.)  At some point, it becomes too much of a hike in rush hour traffic.  My daughter takes the morning bus, but I work, so the afternoon bus isn't an option.[/quote]
