[quote=Anonymous]There are several ways there could be fewer trailers at Kilmer and more students at Cooper.

SB could open an AAP center at Cooper.  It could restrict AAP eligibilty so more base Cooper students do not have an AAP option at Kilmer.  It could redraw the base boundaries and send more Kilmer students to Cooper.

Right now the SB has a split between members who think the current AAP model is fine and should just be expanded to additional schools and those who think it may be broken and in need of serious reform or simply are wary of concentrating new centers in the areas that  already have the highest-performing schools.  The latter prevailed last night.  Right now there's no consensus as to the best way forward at the MS level other than to conduct a study.

If enough people at Kilmer feel as 9:52 does, and overcrowding at Kilmer becomes bad enough, there will eventually be an outcry, and Patty Reed will get to play the same role on Kilmer's behalf that Janie Strauss just played on Haycock's behalf.  But the conditions aren't that bad - while there are many trailers already at Kilmer, it has been renovated within the past 5-10 years and is not about to be a giant construction site.[/quote]
