[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Stone would not have enough kids for an AAP program. The "center" only sends 20-30 kids per grade to Rocky Run. Someone posted about it earlier.

[b]Are you proposing completely doing away with AAP? That's a different suggestion.[/b]

Not at all. Saying "Every middle school should have an AAP program" is the [u]opposite[/u] of suggesting that AAP should be eliminated entirely. [/quote]

Rocky Run only has 670 students that would go to Chantilly for HS as per the 2024-25 FCPS dashboards. Franklin is a big feed to Chantilly.  The reality is Rocky Run with AAP only for the base school should be a single feed to Chantilly HS.  Wherever FCPS can do a concise logical pyramid it should be done.

A rare occasion when MS capacity matches a HS capacity net TJ.  That's why I posted that the split feeder for Carson should be Herndon pyramid. [/quote]

That last sentence makes no sense. How would that work?[/quote]

It makes sense based on MS/HS capacities with all at 100% of program capacity:

Carson 1430 gr 7/8 *2=2860 for any coo of high schools and Herndon makes more sense than Oakton geographically.  KAA est 2100-2860=-760.  Estimate capacity deficit if Carson feeds KAA 100%.
Herndon 1062 gr 7/8*2=2124. Herndon  HS 2749 -2124=625 capacity surplus at Herndon HS.

Herndon MS transfers all AAP to Hughes now. [/quote]

The closest Herndon High kids to Carson live by Herndon Middle School.  This would not work at all.[/quote]

Hutchison https://www.fcps.edu/sites/default/files/Coates-Area-Boundary-Maps.pdf

hutchison ES is 1.3 miles from Herndon MS.  Some spa s are between that ES and MS. Frankly at 95% capacity Hutchison has 12 trailers.  Surplus?  Storage?  If used for instruction the program capacity is overstated.  Herndon needs to stem the transfer tide and AAP at the middle school will help along with a 2nd site for Global STEM.

Harder problem to solve is Oakton HS and middle school, Marshall/Madison.  And the wacky Thru junk putting walkes on buses. 
Plus some SPA s have not been split in over 30 years.  Case in point is one giant in Tysons.  [/quote]
