[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some former Ashlawn ES / Washington-Liberty zoned neighborhoods fought to be rezoned back to W-L from Yorktown, but that didn’t happen since they are outside the W-L walk zone and Yorktown has lots of room. Like the other formerly W-L zoned neighborhoods, such as those north of Lee Highway like Dover Crystal, Woodmont, etc, there are no plans to move them back to W-L. The superintendent (in response to those neighborhoods advocating a return to W-L) said students can apply for an administrative transfer into W-L, as Arlnow reported last year. But I doubt that’s guaranteed and likely based on available space at W-L. [/quote]

Is Yorktown really that bad? It’s at least not overcrowded…[/quote]

Part of the reason is that possibly one small planning unit of Ashlawn kids will end up at Yorktown.  Ashlawn is one of those ES that split between 3 middle schools and now 3 high schools.  The neighborhoods in question were hoping for a bit more continuity for the kids.  Not my neighborhood but I found it to be more of a valid argument than APS staff did apparently.[/quote]

Oh I didn't know that about Ashlawn![/quote]
