[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]*Reads this thread and cries in Alexandrian.*[/quote] No one knows what this means.[/quote] I understood it. Alexandria has the largest high school in the state, way larger than Arlington ones.[/quote] Yep. These folks don’t know what a large high school really is… And that’s good![/quote] Alexandria has 4500 students, across two high school campuses (with two large campuses each with their own administrator/principal) on 38 acres. WL is 2500 (but aiming to head to capacity of 2700), on its one 20 acre campus. WL has more student density; 125 vs 118 students/acre, and will eventually jump to 135 vs 118 when 2700 reached. APS actually view ACPS as a model to emulate, that’s why they hired Duncan who served as administrator on one campus and executive principal. APS views him as the ideal leader to manage W-L's own transition into a more "urban," multi-building high school model. [/quote]
