[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Barcroft boundary is to be redrawn to move neighborhood kids to Randolph/Barrett/Fleet, and an options school - most likely ATS, will move to the site.

You heard it here first.[/quote]

Dubious claim. Barcroft is a very walkable neighborhood school. ATS is an option school at the intersection of two major roads that elementary aged students are not permitted to cross.[/quote]

Yeah,  APS is all about walkable neighborhood schools these days.  Doubtful that they would move an option school to a more walkable location.[/quote]

oh that goes out of the window quickly when it doesn't suit their agenda anymore. everyone thinks their school is more walkable, yes, including Bluemont folks who can't wait to walk to the ATS site. so, the least desirable (yet very walkable) school gets the boot.[/quote]

So, you think that because Alcova Heights wants to go to Fleet that APS will cave and then make it look as if it's not white flight by declaring Barcroft an option school, sending alcova to fleet and the poor kids on the other side of the Barcroft zone to other nearby schools with high FARMs rates? You don't by chance live in alcova heights, do you?[/quote]
