[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The big crisis facing Arlington is high school over crowding. If you think AH is going affect  your property value, you are looking at the wrong issue.

Here's a petition support a 4th high school in Arlington.

https://www.change.org/p/arlington-county-board-aps-should-build-new-high-school-space-not-make-schools-bigger-and-double-shift-students?recruiter=113822210&utm_source=petitions_show_components_action_panel_wrapper&utm_medium=copylink

Maybe you've been around since before the boom and won't be hurt by bad decisions in our county.

[b]Or maybe you paid a fortune to live in Arlington for good schools[/b]...

Yes, be sure to note, like many of the petition responders, if you just moved to Arlington from DC "for the schools." Nothing is more likely to influence the county board than a bunch of people who just moved here and are instantly demanding that the county spend literally hundreds of millions of dollars on behalf of their toddlers.  :roll: [/quote]

"Many" posters?  I read the comments- literally 5 or 6 people mentioned moving to Arlington for the schools, and one of those said she moved here 13 years ago and has kids who have already gone through the system.  Over 400 people signed the petition.  And I'm pretty sure a lot of people are mentioning their mere toddlers because those are the kids who will be most affected by the predicted overcrowding.  But you knew that.[/quote]
