[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]am I right that it said 5 year plan or do I need to worry about this? [/b] How did everyone know this was happening?  I am pretty involved parent and there are at least 7 parents at our bus stop who are also involved, we share a lot, and no one has even mentioned a MS re- design or white oaks closing center.  Yikes.[/quote]

Short answer is no one knows. If you want to get involved, check the links and meeting notices posted on threads here.

This is an email from Richard Moniuszko from yesterday:

As you are aware, FCPS staff is working on a plan for School Board consideration that would relieve the overcrowding in the AAP Center at Haycock.  The school is seriously overcrowded due to enrollment growth in their attendance area, and that overcrowding is compounded by a significant number of AAP center students who come from other elementary school attendance areas.  Student enrollment county-wide has increased over the past four years, counter to the trend prior to that time, and most schools in the area are overcrowded as well. At this point, we are not accepting any new students to the AAP center at Haycock, and looking at the location and enrollment of centers throughout Fairfax County.  As we look at our options, we are very sensitive to the needs of students and families with respect to changing schools. 
 
No matter what rumors or notes from parent meetings you have received, it is important for you to know that no decisions have been made regarding what might be done for next fall to alleviate the overcrowding problem. Among the options being explored are opening new AAP centers in other schools. If we are to open any new AAP centers are to be in place in September 2013, then a School Board decision must be made by January 2013 so the schools can make the appropriate arrangements for training teachers and notifying students and parents. FCPS staff are developing options for discussion with the School Board, as well as for public input into whatever decision will be made. FCPS has always provided for public input when establishing new AAP Centers, and will continue to provide an opportunity for parents and members of the community to engage in this process.
 
We certainly welcome your input and ask for your patience and continued support as we structure the framework for this important proposal in the weeks ahead.
