Then no one can blame any neighborhood that fights tooth and nail losing 500-600 seats while being told APS will do nothing to relieve the resulting overcrowding. Anyone would do the same.[/quote]

You don't look at seats by neighborhood, but by the school system.

And families previously zoned for Key still have a neighborhood high school. Walking to school is great, but it's not reasonable to expect your kids to get to walk to school for all 13 years. [/quote]

Key is zoned for Yorktown. Unless you're considering HB Woodlawn a neighborhood HS? Ha.[/quote]

At least some of Key (the Lyon Village part) is zoned for W-L: [url]https://www.apsva.us/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/HSZones_Letter_2017.pdf[/url][/quote]

Right, cause they don't get screwed like the rest of us. The majority of the zone where most of the students live (cross reference here if you don't believe me https://www.apsva.us/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Stu17K5_PP.jpg) is shipped waaaaaaay over to Williamsburg and Yorktown. No, it's not close or convenient. We fortunately will be zoned to the new middle school at Stratford (still not a "neighborhood" school, but better), but the Yorktown situation will not change.

BTW, this is exactly what will happen if they don't change Key to neighborhood. Lyon Village will go to ASFS and those of us further east will be shipped to the hinterlands. [/quote]
