[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well the people who show up to meetings and vote already sent their kids through the schools. They don't really care if a classes of kids go to school in shifts. The population will go back down like it did before. No new schools as far as they are concerned.[/quote] Amazingly something like 85% of households in Arlington DON'T have kids in the schools and the percentage is going up because there are more apartments/condos being built each year compared to new SFHs. And yeah, even the people who moved here for the schools 20 or 30 years ago just care about their property taxes now. [/quote] Of course that's not taking into account families with multiple kids deciding to live in condos and townhomes. APS has been looking at projections, but not really accepting that. It's a very recent trend, but I don't see it waning. The commutes further out are terrible and metro sucks. [/quote]
