[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes. W&L has been built for 2700. That’s been the plan for years. It will be bigger than the other high schools by quite a bit. This is a consequence of no one wanting to be moved out of that district and no one wanting to truly address the need for a high school. [/quote] So replicating TC Williams model and success?[/quote] TC williams is 5000 students. [/quote] When W-L was 4000 students it was the top high school in the country tied with a school north of Chicago (back in the 50s and 60s). There are no plans to make W-L larger than the 2700. But significant boundary changes will likely be needed to account for the unrelenting growth in South Arlington. APS is planning boundary changes for high schools, but likely without public engagement, a new post pandemic norm that may actually streamline the process. Living across the street from W-L may no longer guarantee that’s your neighborhood high school. That really applies to any school, because the residential growth patterns are so uneven in the county. The Yorktown boundary will likely grow right up against W-L’s literal doorstep. [/quote]
