[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They won’t move ATS to the far north. But if McKrazy keeps McKrazying, I could see them caving and moving ATS to Ashlawn. [/quote]

If APS tries to put ATS at any other neighborhood school it will fight with a united front (PTA and all).  McKinley is a divided school because most of the school can't wait to go to Reed.  Since much of Ashlawn will be leaving that would be the easiest alternative.[/quote]

Ashlawn's PTA will fight any proposals to move ATS there. While some Ashlawn kids will be leaving (mostly from the eastern tail) the group that is currently scheduled to stay has most of the really involved parents. The fact they have been relatively calm in this process so far doesn't mean they won't fight tooth and nail against proposals to eliminate the school. Especially if they only get picked because APS listened to Tuckahoe and McKinley parents.

If ATS is going to move, it should go to McKinley or Tuckahoe - those schools have big numbers of kids moving together to a brand new school. [/quote]

I don’t understand why so many parents are so tied to a building.

We are likely going to change schools in all scenarios. My kids will be fine. All of the schools around us are fine. They will have some friends move with them and make more at the new school.

I don’t get it. [/quote]
