[quote=Anonymous]OP -- this is actually a success!  LJMS was in fact way over crowded.  Now they are not!  They are right at capacity.  This is actually a good use of the facility.  Likewise, TMS was previously under-enrolled and not it is closer to capacity.

If you look at the numbers, LJMS shed about 200 kids in the current 7th grade enrollment.  TMS picked them up.  LJMS lost about 75 kids who apparently could have stayed there for 8th grade, but decided to move over to TMS.... b/c they gained about 75 kids from last June to this SEpt. in the group that is now 8th grade.

So, a net gain at TMS of 275.  Next year, they should even out to add another 75-ish, and that will be the end of it.  300-350 was what the planners expected would be moving out of LJMS and into TMS.

I see that the membership numbers are not separating out the AAP kids.  In the past they used to do that.  Not sure how the AAP numbers have changed.  I don't think it has been much of a change -- maybe 20 or so more at TMS.  But the bulk are still at LJMS.

Separating out the issue of SES, the attendance and capacity balancing was a success.[/quote]
