[quote=Anonymous]I hope the McKinley PTA doesn't talk the School Board out of making Reed a neighborhood school. It will be a (basically) new building! They will have fields! So much field space! Westover is such a nice area! You can pick your kid up to school and walk to pizza or weird jewelry or chinese takeout! McKinley works, but this might work better! It's okay! I agree it makes sense to check the numbers because APS has been wrong on numbers -- specifically McKinley's numbers! -- many times before. One other thing to consider is that if ATS is located right there at McKinley, it might wind up holding a lot of Dominion Hills kids because more families will be interested in an option school program that they can walk to. So that even if there IS concern about how the numbers will actually work out due to overcrowding, it could be that ATS would in effect be a little bit like another neighborhood school in that area because so many kids would apply from the immediate surroundings that ATS will proportionally accept more kids from that area. And that will effectively help to relieve some of the overcrowding that area has been experiencing. Just a thought.[/quote]
