[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][url=http://www.connectionnewspapers.com/news/2018/mar/13/traditional-school-stuffing-arlington/]Excellent report in the Arlington Connection about overcrowding at Arlington Traditional School[/url] (ATS).  For 2018 they are projected to have utliization at 121% of capacity.

[b]121%[/b]! For ATS!!! And yet the School Board wants to go from four relocatables on the ATS lot to [b]twelve[/b]. Even though the whole point of the traditional education model is that you don't have [b]ANY[/b] relocatables on the lot  :roll: .

People cry about McKinley's victimhood, but they're only at [b]113%[/b]. Henry is at [b]150%[/b]. Science Focus is at [b]128%[/b], with Claremont at [b]130%[/b].

People have overstated how McKinley has been harmed while schools like Nottingham and Discovery benefited. Well, Nottingham and Discovery are bursting at the seams. As is Tuckahoe. Even Jamestown, which schools kids who live in the most expensive real estate in the County, winds up OVER capacity.

I'm glad the Connection has inserted actual facts into this debate  :idea:  :!: [/quote]

Funny you call it a "report."  It was clearly written by ATS parents.  Good try to make it seem like real journalism.  [/quote]
