[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My bet would be that, with the possible exception of rising 6th graders, there won't be any grandfathering.  It goes against what they are trying to achieve, which is a reduction in Haycock's enrollment.

The interesting thing is that it doesn't sound like FCPS has really engaged yet with parents at whatever Cluster 2 school is going to get a new AAP center.  Does Lemon Road have enough space?  If it does, my guess is that many parents there would welcome an AAP center.  But I can't see parents of GE kids at schools like Shrevewood or Westgate that are already pretty full jumping up and down in excitement at the prospect of getting an influx of AAP kids.

I hope the Shrevewood parent has a thick skin.  Before this is over, she's going to get the sense at times that nobody wants her kid(s) at their school, but once it's settled people usually get on board quickly.   [/quote]

I'm a Shrevewood parent.  I'm not sure what Cluster 2 school has the capacity for AAP, but I'm OK with not having our AAP at Haycock.  I would have said Lemon Road might be the obvious choice, but now that FCPS just moved some additional kids there, I'm not sure there's enough excess capacity with the planned renovation. [/quote]
