[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I think you are hysterical.  Literally.

Lemon Road is already slated for an expansion that will increase the school's capacity substantially, so it's well known that the school will be getting more students in 2013 or 2014.   Why wouldn't the Lemon Road parents be at least as happy with a Cluster 2 AAP center there as with additional transfers from Freedom Hill, Shrevewood or Westgate?   I haven't seen any Lemon Road parent say they would not welcome an AAP center, but I have seen many posts from Cluster 2 parents worrying that a new center might not be as good as Haycock.

I am the poster that you quoted.  I am most certainly not hysterical.  Please see my comment above , where I specifically say that I am OK with a switch as long as it is DONE WELL.  I have some doubts about that happening, since this all seems to be proceeding at breakneck speed.

The negative comments I have heard from LRES parents have been emails forwarded to me by moms in my social circle and posts on other boards.  They are agitated about continuing changes being forced on them from FCPS without any input on their part.  It doesn't sound like they object to an AAP center per se, just that with many new students and a new principal this year, they would like a year without major disruption.

And I don't know about other parents, but my worry is not that "Haycock is best," it's that I want my kids at a program with fully trained and experienced AAP teachers, a principal who fully supports them, and a larger school body that does not object to their presence.  I think that's pretty reasonable. [/quote]
