[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is it mostly immigrants making up the majority of the new students who are causing overcrowding? [/quote] No[/quote] If by "immigrants" you mean wealthy people decamping from DC to new 5k square foot homes, then yes.[/quote] Strange that, if those people are really so wealthy, they don't care that the school system is facing a crisis.[/quote] How do you know that they don't?[/quote] Well, they aren't acting like it. They are insisting on getting the impossible: enough schools in a style they're used to, despite the fact that the land and money to do so aren't there. (I am saying "they" even though I am technically one of them -- but I am willing to accept plainer buildings and certain cuts to some of the things APS offers now -- maybe we should have a separate thread for that? Or did another poster cover it when she said "Arlington parents are insufferable? -- so that we can have fewer trailers and preserve green space & social services and still have a good academic experience for all students.)
