[quote=Anonymous]I don't know how many times one can state that the bigger issue is at Kilmer, which gets Cooper AAP kids from Great Falls and is already overcrowded. Longfellow is slightly below capacity this year and projected to be overcrowded in another year or two. I agree that the FCPS projections seem unreliable and subject to manipulation, but there's no question that the placement of Cooper AAP students at Kilmer and Longfellow contributes to a growing enrollment gap among the schools. Cooper has over 100 fewer students than it had five years ago and now has the lowest enrollment of any MS in the county, while Kilmer has roughly 250 more students and Longfellow has roughly 170 more students than they had five years ago. That is not a sustainable trend, so at the end of the day the question is whether AAP assignments change, base boundaries change, AAP admissions criteria are tightened, or additions are built.
