[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why can’t we move Montessori back into Drew?

I know politics but is that really going to get in the way of the most obvious and cheapest fix?[/quote]

That was a terrible idea then and a terrible idea today. Drew deserves to be its own neighborhood school.  AMAC needs to stop sucking all of the oxygen. [/quote]

Why does Drew "deserve" this when it's chronically under enrolled and bleeding money? What about what's good for the rest of the system?

Why does MPSA "deserve" its own program?  It's basically middle class white parents who want APS to build them a private school. What about what's good for the rest of the system? [/quote]

Same could be said for ATS! [/quote]

Same could be said for all of the option schools[/quote]

ATS and the other option programs aren't asking for a fancy building for themselves. Two out of the five would rather be in their old buildings tbh.

But yes, particularly for [b]Claremont, ATS and Montessori, they do function to keep those precious white and/or privileged BIPOC kids out of S. Arlington schools[/b].

I thought the neighborhood elementary boundary system was what kept precious white and/or privileged BIPOC kids out of S. Arlington schools, that's why most N Arlington kids are in schools with >70% white kids and people will pay $1.7M to live in a 70-year-old brick rambler. [/quote]
