[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One thing to consider as we debate moving option schools is that all of the option schools also have VPI programs, and students currently in those VPI classes have the option of continuing at those schools when they enter kindergarten rather than transferring to their neighborhood school (except for Drew, because it's Montessori and VPI isn't). If you move one of those option schools to an elementary school that isn't currently outfitted for a preschool program, you'd either have to discontinue that school's preschool program or do a major renovation to accommodate a preschool program. [b]Neither Tuckahoe nor Nottingham currently has a preschool program.[/b] I know Nottingham doesn't have enough classrooms with their own bathrooms to accommodate a preschool program in addition to kindergarten and first grade classes (all of which are supposed to have bathrooms in the classrooms), does Tuckahoe?

Moving ATS further north to a location that couldn't accommodate the VPI program would potentially kill its diversity numbers and make it a school for the white UMC of North Arlington only.[/quote]

Tuckahoe does currently have a preschool program[/quote]
