[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m new to Arlington and am currently zoned to one of the listed schools. Silly me thought I could send my kids to the neighborhood school 2 blocks to my house. Can someone please explain to me why the option programs are preferable to having kids attend a neighborhood school and allow transfers in from overcrowded schools? [/quote] It's not that they're preferable, just that they have them already and are considering moving them to make the system more efficient. You are not guaranteed to go to the school closest to your house, ever, even if there were only neighborhood schools in APS. The boundary has to be drawn somewhere, sometimes even 2 blocks from the school. [/quote]
