You don't even understand how much overcrowding we have had in NW Arlington Elementary Schools.  It is our turn to have breathing room for a few years while they build housing on Lee Highway and EFC. It is okay for Tuckahoe, Nottingham. McKinley and Reed to be under-enrolled for 5-10 years.  These kids have been through so much and just look what will happen once they go to middle school.  Swanson is like a Zoo.  Don't send kids from across the county here it just wouldn't be fair to Tuckahoe.[/quote]

OMG, really?  So the[b] kids who have endured the overcrowding [/b]have earned the right for the next ones behind them in the coming 5-10 years to be under-enrolled?  What about the kids in crowded schools elsewhere in the County?  You want relief from crowding, transfer to less crowded schools.

I pointed out a few hours ago that the kids who experienced the Tuckahoe overcrowding won't even be there by the time this happens since Reed doesn't open until 2021.  Most of those kids are headed to Williamsburg which is on track to itself be underenrolled in another year.  Really, Tuckahoe kids from 2016 on forward have had it pretty good, or at least no worse than kids from any other elementary school ending up at crowded middle schools.  Smoke and mirrors.
