[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]ATS isn’t in hot demand though. Lots of elementary parents (and research) don’t want the homework every day model, and are perfectly happy sending their kids to their neighborhood school. But for those Type A parents, ATS’s lottery is there for you. There is value to having other learning models available to your kids. APE’s going to have a really hard time convincing the community otherwise.[/quote] It actually is in hot demand. There were 320 applicants for kindergarten out of 1973 total kindergartners in the district. There are 25 elementary schools in APS and 16% of the incoming K kids were in the lottery for this one. We didn't apply to the lottery for ATS because I'm not committing to being at the bus stop at 7:10am and traveling across the county to pick up for aftercare, but I certainly wouldn't mind if we implemented homework and other ATS-like elements in our school. https://www.apsva.us/school-transfer-data/[/quote]
