[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We pulled my kids out of APS after elementary. The schools are overcrowded currently; [b]all high schools are over 100% capacity[/b]. Now with MMH (or what ever the new name is since missing middle was a total misnomer) I can’t wait to move out of Arlington. Just a few more years and I’m out.[/quote]

As a fact check, no.  W-L is actually currently well under based on 600-seat addition.  Yorktown is exactly 1 student over capacity with its senior class being the biggest class so will likely be under next year.  Wakefield is over by about 130.

800+ seats are being added at the Career Center site.  No, it's not the 4th high school many people wanted.  There are also a lot of students in this community who are not looking for How We Do High School USA.  Look at the popularity of H-B.  With the early middle school set, APS has already started really talking up Arlington Tech and a lot of kids are interested.

Based on APS projections this really will meet needs.  In fact, enrollment is projected to decline over the next 10 years.  Of course, APS is stupid and the planners are stupid and they are all liars and no one believes anything they say.  Or so it goes on DCUM and in heated PTA meetings across Arlington.

How awkward if they are correct though.[/quote]
