[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can someone explain to me what about Barcroft was different this year than in past years. I'm not challenging the premise of any of the concerns. It seems clear that things are different now than they had been, and something is prompting people to speak up. Is it just a change in demographics? Teachers? Has the school openly acknowledged that it is having to adjust its priorities to meet higher need students? My undertanding is that most arlington elementary schools currently face serious overcrowding, but the concerns being voiced from Barcroft make it seem like it is being disproportionately impacted. [/quote] They built a 100% affordable housing complex on Dinwiddie. The school got a last minute influx of low SES kids in an already crowded school. The county acted like it was unforeseeable. Nuts.[/quote]
