[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hmm. Except folks may have missed this little gem in recent APS document.

Note: At the June 7 School Board meeting, staff was asked to develop a proposal that would include all
elementary schools open through 2021; this will be considered at an August School Board work session. This
could change the timeframe and process described here so please check online for updated information.

From this document:

Do they just get their jollies by starting and stopping this process?  Unreal.[/quote]

So it seems like they decided to not move key at all and make ASFS neighborhood? Redrawing those boundaries will be hard, will they send Rosslyn to Long Branch it only add a bit of Cherrydale?[/quote]

Here's the detail on the powerpoint from the meeting on the 7th:

Arlington Science Focus (ASF)
•The 2018 boundary process could address projected overutilization and the fact that the school site is outside of its attendance zone, but would limit planning units that can be included in future process for Reed
•Limited planning units may be included in the Fall 2018 boundary process: all others would be reviewed as part of the Spring 2020 boundary process
•Waiting until 2020 elementary school boundary process would allow more data about new Kindergarten cohort, transfer rate, and impact of new Options & Transfer policy

It looks to me that they will try to do the bare minimum and wait until the next cycle to make the decision whether to move Key or do major splits to the planning units.[/quote]
