I heard the neighborhood is fighting it, so it may be a while.

Any update on this? We are moving to the area and looking to switch preschools.

SERIOUSLY. How can I as an Arlington resident help fight this ridiculous lawsuit?

Umm... it’s right next to a shopping complex and it’s on Lee Highway. There’s already a lot of traffic. If that bothers them they should move somewhere else. We need more quality daycare centers in Arlington.

Interesting. I'd been wondering what was going on with that building given how long it appeared to be vacant.

It's still very early in the process. No timetable available yet.

I heard that Little Ambassadors Academy is opening a third campus in the leeway-overlee neighborhood. Does anyone have more info on this and when the third campus will open?
