[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hope you all are emailing Duran about this. There is every reason to think APS is going to spend all it's money on this project.[/quote]

ROFL! Does anyone even read Engage emails?

APS is going to do what it wants.[/quote]

If you read between the lines of the Career Center After Action Analysis ([url=https://go.boarddocs.com/vsba/arlington/Board.nsf/files/BX9HTT4A166C/$file/Career%20Center%20After%20Action%20Analysis%20WS%20Presentation%201-14-21.pdf]Jan 14, 2021 slides[/url]) you can see APS just wants to ignore community input and do it their own way:

Frankly APS has wasted years at this point in planning for the Career Center and has gotten very little accomplished. Current Arlington Tech students are suffering, and we are way behind on capacity improvements. I think this plan looks wasteful and poorly thought out but APS needs to get moving on something or our kids will be seriously screwed when they get to high school. I'm already resigned to horrible overcrowding in middle school.[/quote]

This plan doesn't help your HS kids. It doesn't add many HS seats. And are middle schools still overcrowded? Didn't we just open a new middle school like last year?[/quote]

Middle schools are set to be the most overcrowded by 2024. Read the PowerPoint. APS messed up big time when it scaled Hamm back from 1300 to 1000.

But isn't that still fixable? [/quote]
