Nope, February 6. Tonight is just to let folks talk about it.

Why does McKinley still think no one can be moved north to the empty seat they keep talking about?

Also it seems like this lady doesn’t realize that other boundary changes are happening after the swap.

And Fleet is not under 70% capacity I don’t think.

Drew is but I don’t think Fleet is.

Hearing this I do think APS screwed up with the “what if” scenarios.

They made the scariest looking boundaries they possibly could and everyone knows that it would never actually happen.

Some of the speakers think the live-stream must be like network TV with bright uplighting. Tone down the blush!

There are a lot of Spanish-speaking families around Barrett.


There are a lot of Spanish speaking families at Ashlawn and ATS’s building is in the current Ashlawn boundary.


Does APS provide busses to immersion schools?
I have a student at ashlawn and his friends that live in the apartments where most of the spanish speaking kids live do not have transportation options.
We have to pick them up/drop them off for play dates or parties because they either have one car no car available.
Do not see them making any commute on their own if they do not have public transportation/school bus.


Yes. Students at all schools are provided busses if they are outside the walk zone. Key and ATS both currently have 13 buses each.

Madison Manor & Dominion Hills Unleashed. One night only 1/30. APS should sell tickets - I hope we haven't heard the last from McKrazy & Data Dudes.


Now who's nasty?

I'm really hoping somebody will post here while watching. I love the commentary on DCUM and one of you (at least) is really funny.
