[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The difference between Franklin Sherman and some schools is that the principal has no interest in having classes with only LLIV-eligible kids.  So they "offer" LLIV services but because the principal refuses to have LLIV-only classes and prioritizes the sense of community there are a lot of families who move their kids to the AAP center at Haycock starting in 3rd grade.

I wouldn't be surprised, though, if in connection with the Kent Gardens overcrowding one option they might be considering is making FS an AAP center for the kids from both FS and KG.  Having AAP at FS might balance the enrollments at the local ES (Haycock, FS, KG).  The AAP kids from Chesterbrook could still go to Haycock if they wanted to (many now stay at Chesterbrook).

Kent Gardens has a great in house level 1V program so very few kids elect to go to the AAP Center at Churchill.  So that idea will not really make any type of dent in the overcrowding issue at KG[/quote]

I’m not so sure about that.  Few people from Kent Gardens go to Churchill Road now because almost everyone else at CR goes to Cooper.  When the rest of the AAP kids from CR also went to Longfellow more KG kids went to CR.  If Franklin Sherman was the AAP center for KG and all the kids went on to Longfellow you might see  more AAP kids from KG at FS than are now at CR. [/quote]
