[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It there's an entire school worth of students waiting / hoping to get into ATS, why doesn't APS consider opening another ATS option school? [/quote] I’d venture to say that they’re worried about tanking the other schools. When you take the top kids out of every school, it makes it obvious that the rest aren’t doing well. And scores would drop. [/quote] They aren’t necessarily the top kids at each school. It’s not a magnet school that kids test into. And there isn’t an allocated number of spots that each neighborhood can send to ATS (which is how HB Woodlawn runs its lottery). [/quote]
