[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do other AAP centers have more schools that “feed” into their school/center? Why would Navy only have one other school? Does that mean historically Navy and Crossfield have a lot of kids in AAP?[/quote]

I don't know about other AAP centers, but it's probably a building capacity issue.

Navy enrollment #s and breakout: https://schoolprofiles.fcps.edu/schlprfl/f?p=108:13:::::P0_CURRENT_SCHOOL_ID,P0_EDSL:332,0

You can see that there the current 3rd grade class (grade 2 in last year's data) is a whole class size smaller than the grade ahead of them, and the current 2nd grade class (grade 1 in last year's data) is another class size smaller than them. Then the current 1st grade class jumps back up in size. It's just a population size variance.

Crossfield is a smaller school than Navy, and that is reflected in their enrollment numbers:

I wouldn't be surprised if next year's 3rd grade AAP is only 1 class again. It's an overall smaller class at both schools than the one it is following.

Wait - there's only ONE AAP class at a CENTER? What's the point of even sending your kid there, why not just put them in LLIV at Crossfield? It's my understanding that only about 1/2 of the kids in the LLIV class are actually AAP, so that means Navy probably has the same amount. Just get rid of the center and make both schools LLIV.[/quote]

It’s incredibly difficult to get into AAP if Navy is your base school. Almost half of the Top 10% in 2nd grade (about 9 kids) were in-pool with very high test scores and did not get in. [/quote]

Then why is it a center? Why not make it at LLIV school so those kids can pupil place into the AAP class? Crossfield has one LLIV class every year, the kids can just stay there or go to Hunters Woods.[/quote]

Navy is the AAP center for Crossfield kids. Not hunters woods. [/quote]
