[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It does not make sense for any Lake Bradfock students to attend Keene Mill for AAP.

Lake Braddock has more than enough elementary kids to move those students to a center or create a center gor them in their pyramid.

It is crazy to call an Keene Mill a split feeder because it simply is not.

[b]AAP feeder patterns are insane. [/b]The AAP kids at Gunston who live in the portion of the school zoned to Hayfield go to Lake Braddock, while the kids who live in the South County zone go to South County. Why don’t we have AAP at all middle schools yet? I also think there is a similar issue at Lorton Station where the AAP kids attending the Lorton Station center from Saratoga go to Lake Braddock instead of Lewis. [/quote]

Which is why they need to eliminate centers for good and just keep all kids at their base schools.  Have an AAP group for every subject and allow kids to rotate in and out as needed.  This does not need to be the ridiculously complicated system they currently have for something that's not even a gifted program.[/quote]

Elementary schools don’t rotate for math, reading, social studies and science.  They lump math/science together and reading/social studies. They can’t do “an AAP group for every subject’ and have the kids rotate out without losing TONS of time to transitions.

I don’t really care if they get rid of AAP centers at the elementary school level except that it will result in a massive redistricting project. [/quote]

My kids' elementary school rotates for all four core subjects.  The classrooms are all clustered next to one another, so it's not a big deal at all.  [/quote]
