[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If ATS goes to McKinley, some of MCK will move to the ATE building bc it’s within the McK boundaries. Still, it’s the most logical. [/quote]

The chances of McKinley becoming choice and ATS becoming neighborhood are nil. ATS would not have a good walk zone.[/quote]

Totally agree. But what happens if they move immersion to S Arlington, Key becomes neighborhood and those are the only changes made. You’ve just mad the seat deficit in S Arlington worse to give Clarendon/wealthy folks a neighborhood school. Right then and there they’d have to commit to a new neighborhood school in SA. [/quote]

The seat deficit in S Arlington is purely theoretical at this point. If you look at the current number of students (including preschoolers) vs building capacity there are hundreds of open seats right now. There are even more if you take Claremont and Campbell out (and another immersion program in S Arlington would take some of Claremont's students). This is completely ignoring the obvious fact that zones can cross 50. Sorry about the formatting on the table, I can't figure out how to insert it properly. The first number is capacity, the second is actual Sept 2019 numbers, the third is over/under.
