[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does anyone have any inside information or rumors on what is planned? My daughter will be in fifth grade next year and I saw the maps that kept most of her school at hamm, which would be great for her socially. The maps that don’t move immersion aren’t as good (and honestly look a little screwy), so I’m curious if anyone has any insight. [/quote] I don’t think anyone knows. APS just revised the boundary policy that now prioritizes alignment and walkability over other concerns. So that should keep neighborhoods happy. But for boundary changes to actually happen, APS could wait till Arlington Tech fully opens to solve the worsening enrollment imbalances among the schools. I’ve previously commented on the pros/cons of other commenters’ ideas here like moving all of Lyon Village to Yorktown to solve an alignment issue or sending Boulevard Manor to Swanson for similar reasons, etc. But these are all just pie in the sky ideas that probably no one except people on here are discussing or considering. [/quote] Are there new documents? I thought this was tabled for a long time? They cancelled the Nottingham "swing space". They discovered that Gunston was overcrowded by 100 students who were not even FROM APS. We need to double down on residency checking in every freaking grade before entering another boundary Thunderdome(tm).[/quote] My assumption is that students who didn’t live in Arlington were asked to leave or are now paying tuition? Arlnow I think published something on the new boundary policy. Boundaries traditionally happen once a generation but APS really messed things up the last couple rounds regarding alignment. [/quote]
