[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hey Nottingham, Mary K. is going to kill your school. Tune in to the board meeting Dec. 18. She’s already ruled out closing Taylor and while Mary’s proposal will mention a south ES, the huge lack of seats in the south means not even Drew will be converted to an option school. (Also, good luck taking that historic black community’s school from them and bussing their kids elsewhere, amirite?). This means only Nottingham is left and please remember Mary supported that school being swing space last year. Good luck. [/quote]

Not being obtuse - why do we care given how under enrolled it is? I don’t see enrollment picking back up naturally (ie via new families moving in) and “north north” Arlington is already bursting at the seams with elementary schools. [/quote]

Missing middle will draw in a lot more students if that happens. [/quote]

It's not just MM, but the CAFs as well. That Goodwill project on Glebe should have everyone who is zoned to Fleet/Jefferson worried. It will be twice as big as Gilliam Place down the road and will force a rezoning. But APS will wait until the last minute to do anything.
