[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do the break up the kids from Middle school going to high school? Elementary kids in one school should all funnel to the same middle school and then should all funnel from middle to high school together. There are 6 middle schools and 2 middle schools should fully funnel to each of the 3 high schools, correct?[/quote]

Unless you've looked at the Abingdon zone and fixed it, no other zone gets as jerked around in each transition.[/quote]

Ashlawn parents would like a word [/quote]

Is Ashlawn split into 3 middle schools?[/quote]

DP, and wholeheartedly agree that the Abingdon feeder pattern to middle schools (and even to high schools) is the worst in APS. Abingdon goes to three middle schools. Abingdon-Kenmore and Abingdon-TJ are both particularly problematic, as Abingdon-Kenmore splits to two high schools, and I think Abingdon-TJ also splits to two. So, there are significant disruptions in the ES-MS transition, and again in the MS-HS transition.

If there is a more disruptive pattern in APS, I don't know about it. It's a great idea that PP had to send all ES students to the same middle school. I think Abingdon families would just like to see their kids going to only two.   [/quote]

Does Abingdon also split to Yorktown? Or just Wakefield and W-L. [/quote]
