[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My oldest will be going into 3rd grade at ATS and my younger will be starting K there this year (just got the email yesterday he was offered admission- I was a little nervous with all the redshirting this year). One thing to note, this year’s K class is large, 5 instead of 4. This is the 2nd time they’ve had a 5 class K.

I can’t say enough good things about ATS (I’m a non-VPI South Arlington family). It is great for my quiet, inverted rue-following kid, and I’m sure it’ll be great for my boisterous, outgoing, line-stepping kid. All the teachers have been outstanding, and the principal runs a tight ship and I have to assume the teachers like her, given the average tenure.  Being at ATS was one reason I decided not to leave Arlington this year during the pandemic.

On Drew, the principal is excellent (feedback from teachers who’ve worked with her), but I’ve heard from friends whose kids go there... it is a much different experience than my kids get are getting at ATS. However, I think Drew will grow to a unique and exceptional school. [/quote]

The last group of 5Ks are going to be in 3rd grade next school year and I have one of them. I think they worked out all of the kinks. The 5v's 4 v's 3 shouldn't be part of your decision. [/quote]
