[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The list contains so many new AAP centers! It may be time to go all LLIV[/quote]

The last thing FCPS needs are more AAP centers.   :roll:[/quote]

More AAP Centers will reduce transportation costs.[/quote]

Quite the opposite!   :?:   Busing kids to an AAP center costs much more than just keeping them at their base school.  [/quote]

It seemed like many of the proposals called for AAP centers that would only draw from students at their base schools or additional centers that might pull from multiple schools, but would be closer to many students' homes than the existing centers.  This would reduce current transportation costs.  [/quote]

Why not just keep the kids at their base schools and be done with centers for good?  That would certainly reduce transportation costs.[/quote]

That works in elementary schools where there are enough level IV and Level II students to fill at least one class.  It does not work in elementary schools that do not have enough students.  Pooling students in one school works for those elementary schools.  Different elementary schools have different populations.  Fairfax is too large and too diverse where a one size fits all policy works well for all students.   [/quote]
