[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is there any chance this "over crowding" situation at the elementary level could be temporary, over the next 4-5 years? I guess this is an unknown, but I'm concerned drastic changes will be made when the surplus of kids is not long-term. Is it possible Arlington will continue to grow at the rate it has been, when it comes to families with young children? [/quote] They have not built any new elementary schools--it's all been managed with trailers so far, and there are enough trailers around to fill six schools. (For real.) Enrollment would have to *drop* by 25% just to get rid of the trailers and return to the building use levels we had ten years ago. APS enrollment may not grow as fast five or ten years from now, but I really doubt it is going to [i]stop growing and then shrink[/i] by 25% anytime soon. [/quote]
