[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Serious question--why do we cap the choice schools' enrollment? Why don't we just let them become over-enrolled to the same percentage as the average neighborhood school? Spread the pain evenly? You can be immersed just as well in a trailer as anywhere else. (I have a toddler, so I'm not a current APS parent).[/quote] Some choice schools are not capped and some are capped. It's because of the patchwork policy that is under review. Spanish immersion, for example, due to the current policy guarantees, cannot be capped. This year, Claremont Immersion actually had the highest number of "missing seats" of any elementary school with 165 more students than seats (~128% capacity).[/quote]
