[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When will these changes go into effect?[/quote]

FCPS staff have recommended that these changes to go into effect in the next school year (Fall 2013).  The FCPS news release:

http://commweb.fcps.edu/newsreleases/newsrelease.cfm?newsid=2116

states the community meetings are "[b]to gather public input about the timing[/b] of expanding advanced academic services to all pyramids within FCPS".

This [b]could[/b] be read as "This Is A Done Deal And We Want To Know When You Want This Done To You" versus any type of "discussion" as to whether this is a good idea in the first place.

Note the next to last paragraph of the "implementation plan":

If any of these new centers are to be in place in September 2013, then a School Board decision must be made by January 2013 so the schools can make the appropriate arrangements for training teachers and notifying students and parents. For this reason, FCPS staff will present their initial recommendations for establishing new elementary and middle school AAP Centers  to the School Board in the next few weeks, with a School Board work session on these issues tentatively scheduled for December 10.  Although the time line for action is ambitious, FCPS has always provided for public input when establishing new AAP Centers, and will continue to provide an opportunity for parents and members of the community to engage in this process.
