A lot of ASFS opposed the swap, and the new boundaries for Key will carve them up.  This is basically the real end of ASFS.[/quote]

I bet 75% of the current community will stay together and form a new great school at the Key location.

ASFS will continue to exist. I doubt it will change much unless the principal retires.

What are you talking about? A lot of ASFS will be redistricted to Key. They have to relieve the overcrowded at ASFS plus make room for all the kids that currently go to Taylor but could walk to ASFS, plus the “tail” of Ashlawn.

And then there is the Reed redistricting... I have no clue how staff is going to accomplish this.[/quote]

Yes, I’m estimating that 75% of the current population will stay together and move together to the new Key location.

Yes, I agree about that amount will move to Key. But how does ASFS stay the same? You mean the focus/attitude will stay even if the kids change? [/quote]

I suspect that less than 75% will go given that a good number of immersion students will stay with the building.  Rosslyn and Courthouse will split between Taylor and Longbranch.  ASFS will get all of the Cherrydale, the Ashlawn tail, and the Taylor part of LV, so overall, it won’t change too much— diversity and lots of rich homeowners.  New Key will be similar.  Taylor and Long Branch will probably shift the most in terms of getting lots of new diversity.   ASFS principal staying on for at least several more years so it really shouldn’t change too much. [/quote]

ASFS will be 50/50. half go to new neighborhood school at Key and other half stay at ASFS.  They will have to take more than just the Taylor part of LV because Key will be way too full with all the Rosslyn/Courthouse/Clarendon (unless some PU there go to Long Branch, which frankly should happen as shift occur in the south to fill up Drew). So not much changing at ASFS except Rosslyn/Courthouse/Clarendon not going there.  ASFS boundary will probably extend to about N Bryan St as their simply won't be room for all those kids the new neighborhood school at Key and frankly many of those parents would be just happy to stay at ASFS.[/quote]
Didn’t long branch just gets its boundaries redone?  Wouldn’t fleet have to take some planning units north of 50 in order for long branch to take additional kids north?   I thought they were trying to move more of Abingdon into drew.  Not in asf or long branch but I’m trying to follow your thinking here.[/quote]
