[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Cooper does not [i]currently[/i] have AAP.  That will post certainly change in the next 1-5 years- probably closer to the one year than 5.  Longfellow is at capacity and it expected to grow.  Cooper is under capacity and expected to shrink.  Kilmer is also over populated and predicted to grow.

I sincerely hope that Cooper does not become a center.  It's a great school just as it is.  When is this AAP madness going to stop?[/quote]

Kilmer and Longfellow are expected to get more crowded with the growth of Tysons, so it seems inevitable that the AAP kids from the Langley pyramid will be sent to Cooper, their base school, in a few years.  FCPS thought about doing it this year, but many in-boundary parents of AAP students didn't think Cooper would be ready, and opening another AAP center in that part of the county would have underscored how many AAP kids come from affluent areas, at a time when others were complaining that poorer students are under-represented in the AAP programs.  But at some point the capacity issues will take precedence over the other considerations. [/quote]
