[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The notion that the county would force an immersion school with a high-ish FARMS rate to move locations boggles my mind.  What a repulsive thing to do.  Key is a great community.  Why should they be forced to move to a smaller, less accessible building?  Seriously.  If this is true, what are these pro-move people thinking?[/quote]

Because APS has to decide whether the priority is sufficient neighborhood seats with lottery schools where there’s room or whether these lottery lucky-ticket programs get first preference. [/quote]

So basically, someone got upset  that Key has more green space than ASFS does and said, well, let’s take that for ourselves?   [/quote]
No.  In a few years, very few kids from keys neighborhood will go to key.  Most will go to wherever the neighborhood school is since key is county wide.  If it’s county wide, it shouldn’t matter where it is.  If it does matter where it is, then bring back neighborhood preference and the shared boundary with a non immersion neighborhood school.   
I think they should seriously rethink the enrollments and transfers changes they made last year.  They created this mess.  Is Abingdon getting as screwed as the people zoned for Asfs are?[/quote]
