[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Yep, keep pushing the issue this fall, it's the best way to accelerate the swap. If the ASFS/Key people sufficiently disrupt this fall's South Arlington boundary process with this issue, APS will do the swap for the 2020 school year and get it over with so that it doesn't totally derail the North Arlington boundary process that fall.[/quote]
This isn't an off-the wall comment, but if those opposed let the issue sit for now, it will achieve an aura of inevitability.  If they want a different outcome, I don't think they can afford to wait.  They need to make their case now, while other options are still available.[/quote]
What other options do you think are available?   What options are foreclosed by waiting until Spring?  [/quote]
The ability to put the option schools in locations that would be best for the whole school district. Not that anyone actually believes that the current School Board or staff have the ability or desire to actually to it, but they are foreclosing on that ability because after they rezone South Arlington they are not moving those planning units for another five years.

If they did reconsider the swap issue this fall, they're still not going to move Key into any of the school locations only up for consideration this fall because there's not enough time before the December vote to work through all of the logistics of which school and where their population would go. The most they could do is decide to keep Key where it is or move it elsewhere in Arlington that's up for the 2020 process (which includes some schools also up for 2018), and they can do that in January just as well (if not better, since they'll have more bandwidth to focus on it) than they can now.
