[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly I wish all these groups would direct energy to the elephant in the room problem:!the desperate need for a 4th comprehensive high school. If you are new to APS, that is what you should be paying attention to. [/quote]

APS tried that but it was scuttled by the parents whose kids would actually attend.  What alternative proposal do you have for a fourth comprehensive high school?[/quote]

No they planned a half-baked school, in “central arl” without pool or football field. So 2nd class school compared to other 3.  They have NEVER put forth a full comprehensive school, and the Kenmore site is the place to do it. [/quote]

A third school on the same site using that same tiny driveway?  You’re joking, right?[/quote]

They talked about access from Fairfax side. What is your alternative? 5000 student WL and Wakefield?[/quote]

Fairfax refused to allow access from the Fairfax side, which is what scuttled the plan the first time.[/quote]

That was retaliation for us cancelling the streetcar. Perhaps they won’t always hold a grudge? [/quote]

It seems unlikely. It was what, 8 years ago? If they went forward with the planning and the only thing that was holding stuff up was this one element of FFX's cooperation, the county would be able to shine a spotlight on it and it would get done. But barring that, it's an easy excuse to use to not start any planning at all. [/quote]
