Then why is the subject of this thread, "Longfellow MS AAP overcrowding plans"?  I'm one of the Cooper parents who would very much prefer not having a center at Cooper, but according to some (rumors?) here on DCUM, Cooper will indeed be starting a center to "help alleviate overcrowding at Longfellow's AAP center".  So, which is it?  What is the truth here?[/quote]

"The truth" depends on who you ask & which outcome they want -- like any other issue!   The person starting this thread is probably a LMS base parent, probably GE, who resents the AAP kids and wants to blame them for the school being so big, and s/he wants to make it seem a necessity to send them to their base schools.  I think the truth is that LMS is a very big school and always will be, and though it's not over capacity yet, it will eventually be over capacity mostly because of growth in its base population, AND there are some vocal voices who really want a center at Cooper for lots of reasons.  LMS principal can't stand thought of having trailers again; CMS principal wants the prestige of center; anti-AAP movement is toward all school based programs rather than center; CMS is small relative to LMS . . . (but that doesn't mean it can handle having all the AAP kids from LMS & Kilmer dumped on it . . .)[/quote]
