[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Without AAP, Fairfax County will lose many of its best and brightest to Montgomery County or Arlington. That means less tax revenue for the county and would hurt all of us. [/quote] 1) No one is suggesting eliminating AAP. 2) If children leave the system is costs less to run, lowering tax need. If it lowers the tax rate, then more people would be inclined to move to Fairfax. What we really need to do in Fairfax County is do what Arlington has done for the past 25 years - create an urban plan that attracts more dual income no children families and thus the tax base is more balanced. 3) AAP students cost more to serve than general ed, Schools get a % more per AAP child. THis is the real reason I think AAP has grown. Principals get more $$$ the more AAP students they identify. I think this is one reason more schools are doing LLIV.[/quote]
