[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The split at wolftrap should not have been a priority as it was an almost even  split. But Kilmer needed help. [/quote]

The change to middle school AAP will help Kilmer and the capacity information being used at Kilmer is suspect at best.  Agree, the Wolftrap changes are unnecessary and should not occur.[/quote]

What does Madison’s enrollment look like if they undo the Wolftrap and Westbriar changes?  I think it ends up under 2100 at a school recently expanded to 2500. [/quote]
If only there were some Thoreau/Marshall students from Stenwood and Cunningham Park who could utilize Madison’s new capacity without putting more stress on Thoreau MS projected enrollment.

But to answer your question, if you take out the Wolftrap/Marshall kids, Madison would only gain 16 students from Vienna ES and stay at 88%[/quote]

That's never been proposed.  Those kids live closer to Marshall than the kids at Wolftrap, in addition to which you don't have to travel through Tysons to get to Marshall from Dunn Loring Woods and Stonewall Manor (the opposite is the case for Wolftrap kids).  In fact, if you live next door to Thoreau right now, you go to Marshall.

Further, Marshall kids were at Thoreau long before Oakton kids were.  If they were really concerned about overcrowding at Thoreau, why aren't they looking at moving Oakton kids back to Jackson, since Jackson already stands to lose kids when all MS have AAP.  [/quote]
