[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'd like to see a study that really explains what accounts for the growth in APS enrollment. [/quote] the 'growth' started when families stopped sending kids to private schools, is how i rationalize it.[/quote] There was a HUGE influx of yuppy families from DC in the mid-2000s. The majority of the families on my street sold or rent out their homes in DC neighborhoods when their kids were ready for elementary school. These people are in it for the long haul. It is a like a population boom. There are kids everywhere. These were people that wanted to be close to the city, shorter commutes and be able to send to good publics. Arlington County has such great services and it's small size makes it feel like residents have a voice. This is the growth.[/quote]
