Please.  We live in Cherryvale and perfectly happy at Taylor.  All of my kid's closest friends happen to live close to key and asfs so he'll lose his closest friends.  We did not lobby for any of this.  Even the families I know who live close to asfs told me they preferred to stay at Taylor so not all of us want this.[/quote]
Let me be more specific then: the ones behind this fiasco suck.[/quote]

They may have jumped on the opportunity, but they didn’t create it. Without neighborhood preference, Key has to be a neighborhood school. There are just too many kids around it for it.

The mass of ASFS humanity at office hours etc can now oAt themselces in tbe back and think they kept it as a neighborhood school. But really, it was the principals and the idea of putting both schools perhaps closer together and moving one to Carlin Springs.

Now, Tallento is going to try and prevent CS from becoming an option school crying about the traffic. But, she better lose. This plan makes much more sense so long as they don’t move ATS to the NW and make it the N Arlington free private school. [/quote]

Do you know who advocated to remove neighborhood preference from Key? It was folks from Cherrydale who can do basic math and knew it would precipitate this enrollment crisis and move Key. [/quote]

There was an enrollment crisis at ASFS/Key even before they eliminated neighborhood preference, so I don't think this can be put on Cherrydale. That said, I assume this plan would negatively impact you, which sucks and I'm sorry.[/quote]
