[quote=Anonymous]Likely the boundary process will be similar to all the others.  APS will come out with a few alternatives, they will put online the boundary tool that will let the community come up with scenarios.  And then whichever groups scream the loudest will get their way.

The SB has now said they'll need to rezone pretty much all of north Arlington.  Regardless of whether Reed is choice or neighborhood, the breakup of the team school concept plus the screw-up at McKinley (which as of this week is already confirmed to have over 750 students next fall) mean they need to re-balance.  It's not just a matter of ASFS getting a bunch of new kids.  Unless you are in a planning until adjacent to a school, I wouldn't be certain that your's isn't potentially on the table for moving.  Nottingham, Jamestown, and Discovery all have space.

Typically 5th graders are grandfathered, and younger siblings of concurrently enrolled students.  If your 5th grader moves to MS before your younger one enters K, then the grandfathering doesn't apply.  Sometimes they also only grandfather siblings if the siblings are in 3rd or 4th grade, but much younger siblings must move within a year or two.
