They really need to go back to the drawing board on this one and make sure they know what they are doing. [/quote]

[b]Where did you hear that? At the TMS orientation on 2/15 we were told that all AAP kids whose base MS is Thoreau have already been loaded into TMS's system.  If we pick LJ, we need to request a change.[/b]  [/quote]

If your child goes to a center for AAP, they are automatically assigned to Jackson (center). If your child went to a local level IV - they will be assigned to Thoreau. If you want to change either one of these, you need to submit a form indicating this change.[/quote]

Is this how they calculated the future projections for the Thoreau boundary study? It looks like the study is saying all the kids who are in LLIV would elect to go to Jackson instead of Thoreau.[/quote]

It sure does. And realistically we all know that in a few years most of the AAP-eligible kids at Thoreau will remain there.

The Facilities staff that comes up with these projections just wants to move bodies to meet short-term needs. They have no clue how people actually behave, which is why their forecasts are often laughably wrong. [/quote]

I think FCPS needs to find a new facilities lead. It's obvious he doesn't know what he is doing from a policy perspective.[/quote]
