[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Apparently Hamm was only accepting 24 transfers this year and there were 70 applicants.  Hopefully this shows that it would be possible to fill schools with voluntary transfers.[/quote]

Hamm isn't the school they need to fill!  Williamsburg is.[/quote]

Did Williamsburg also fill up their transfer quota? [/quote]

Would be interesting to know.  Williamsburg is seriously under enrolled.

At a minimum the School Board should move the straggling Tuckahoe and Nottingham planning units to Williamsburg just to alleviate Swanson, which is too full and on track to get more full.  The Williamsburg issue is just going to keep getting worse if they don't do anything.[/quote]

I think Williamsburg only had 10 seats for 6th-grade neighborhood transfers, and there were 50+ on the waitlist.  If WMS is so under enrolled, why weren't there more transfer seats available?[/quote] Apparently the number of transfer seats is up to the principal, so based on the desires of Williamsburg, not the needs of APS.[/quote]

I don’t think this is true.  APS dictates transfers.  [/quote]
