[quote=Anonymous]12:32 - I would bet money that this isn't about Taylor. There was a group of Tuckahoe families that fought tooth & nail to either stay at Tuckahoe or move to Nottingham with their neighbors that were moved the year before. However, a group of Nottingham parents put together a petition to keep them out and won over the APS staff. As a result, the Tuckahoe families were moved to McKinley, a school that is still under construction and is at over 700 students this year. They moved the kids from Tuckahoe trailers to McKinley trailers (with no gym, btw) while Nottingham had plenty of seats. As a result of the move, the neighborhood was split into 3 schools (Tuck, Nott & McK). Also, if McK is already over 700, the trailers will still be necessary next year b/c the school was built to 680-something. Aside from the move being asisnine based upon actual student enrollment, one of the main arguments from the Tuckahoe families was that the neighborhood was already split into 2 schools and they didn't want it split up even more.
