[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our elementary went from 30% to 65% from 2021 to now. It is not the same school.  [/quote]

That’s astonishing.  In such a short time span?  Shift in boundaries at all?  Which county?[/quote]

So did mine. Terrible answer but it was because an apartment complex opened in our area. Our school went from a 7 to a 1. Elementary schools are very small (500 kids?) so new public housing easily overwhelms them. Luckily the middle and high are still excellent. Hoping to hang on that long. We feel very invisible. Teachers are overwhelmed as well. [/quote]

Thanks for your honest answer.  That’s a huge dive… I’m sorry.
And that is one reason why the persistent push for ever increasing density is so thoughtless  - especially when the schools were already overwhelmed or overcrowded - they are just making it worse! [/quote]

PP with the dramatic change in ES demographics.   It is the huge influx of undocumented people during the previous admin that live in Arlandria. 
This is ACPS - the sky rocketing ELL population has profoundly altered all elementary schools. Last year the district was 45% English learners. https://schoolquality.virginia.gov/divisions/alexandria-city-public-schools[/quote]
