[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They have increased the size of H-B twice recently and it will increase in the new building. H-B's high school capacity is 390 and its enrollment last year was 451, so they are at 115%--that is actually the highest for any high school. High school will be 475 in the new building. Middle school program is 221 at  Stop with the fake news.  [/quote]

Firstly, it’s sad that you have to revert to the vile tactic of calling anything you don’t like or agree with fake news. Why can’t you just provide your facts?

Secondly, it’s great that HB has increased their enrollment twice, but so has just about every other APS school but on a much larger scale. If HB is doing it’s part, why was the lottery for 6th grade MS just 75? Isn’t that 100% capacity? If the class size will increase to 100 in the new building, why not admit 100 6th grader’s next year? That will bring them to 133% capacity for 6th grade 2018-19, on par with other Middle schools., and back to 100% the following  year. [/quote]

The lottery may be factored for 100% capacity, but there will also be the students who are ushered in through the back door, hush hush process by admins who are willing to grant favors.  Yes, I know a kid who got in this way- no special needs, just a parent with a special friend in the right place.  The lottery doesn’t account for every admit.[/quote]
