[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No way this is a done deal. [/quote]

No, but it will be on Feb 6.[/quote]

Remember when the superintendent declared the swap a done deal?  I think they want the change, but I won’t be shocked if it falls through.  I’m ready to move on to the next phase of the boundary process, which will probably be a bigger hotter mess than this.  [/quote]

Yes it will!  I wonder how many people realize that every school will be impacted by boundary changes.  Can't wait for the yelling when they realize.  [/quote]

Lisa Stengle said last night re: Abingdon that the same scenarios as 2018 were going to come back because it's overcrowded. I assume that means part of Fairlington to Drew?[/quote]

No. It means apartments south of columbia pike will go to an expanded Barcroft. It will make Barcroft like Carlin Springs. The CIP anticipates growth on the west end of the Pike, meaning move the kids to Barcroft. I heard it directly from a school board member.[/quote]

No, because that SB member doesn’t know their a** from their elbow. That’s not happening. Abingdon needs relief, not Barcroft. Some bus riders to  Abingdon are taking a bus to the half-empty and adjacent Drew. [/quote]

It will be both.  Abingdon will need more trailers next year, despite it's addition and renovation; so boundary changes to relieve crowding there likely send students to Drew.  Once Barcroft gets an addition, it will be assigned more students and the only places they'll have to draw from are the CAFs in the west end.  So, yes, Barcroft will become another Randolph and Carlin Springs sdemographically.[/quote]
