[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow 50%.  That’s a lot.[/quote]

It’s also an exaggeration. Wilson is built for 1600 and has 2100 enrolled. 50% overenrolled would be 2400. I’m not saying the current situation is great. MacArthur is very necessary. But it’s not literally 50% overenrolled. [/quote]

This trend is just not sustainable.  Is there even a target date for MacArthur?[/quote]

Fall 2023.[/quote]

That is the dream, but having watched DC, I'm guessing the actual date will be more like Fall 2024. The MacArthur site is actually in pretty good state, but DC knows how to slow things down through a combination of incompetence, cronyism, and lack of accountability. (I'm also pretty doubtful the elementary school across the street will also ever be built)

Hardy can fill a middle school of about 800-900 (current 6th grade class is 200). The new site will have room for that. The only OOB at the new high school will be those with feeder rights from elementary school (Hardy will stop taking lottery students starting next year). [/quote]
