There will be a big move to TMS in overall student numbers b/c of the rezoning. The enrollment at TMS is around 1250 this year. What we don't know is how the AAP numbers have changed (or stayed the same) since FCPS does not publish AAP membership for schools that are not centers. Yes, we will be able to see LJMS's AAP membership numbers for the combined total in 7th grade and 8th grade. So, we can see if it is a departure from what they typically have. But, without knowing what TMS's AAP numbers are, you don't know if any change at LJMS is just a normal fluctuation or if it is actually a shift toward TMS.

I suspect there will be just a small shift to TMS (like maybe 10 more than normal). But, until someone gets the data, we are all just guessing. Even if LJMS loses 50 kids (which I'm pretty sure didn't happen this year), and TMS gained 50 AAP kids, LJMS would still have a perfectly fine AAP program (there are other middle school centers with smaller populations); and TMS and LJMS would be more even in terms of AAP membership.

Not really. The stats for LJMS will be posted in the profile membership section. But for middle schools that are not centers, they don't separate the AAP numbers out in their membership numbers.

They do on dashboard, no?

As for OES...With Blake Lane ES in the works, I predict a major rezoning of Marshall Road, Mosby Woods, Flint Hill, and Oakton Elementary schools.

Yeah, because it makes so much sense to move to a middle school that already sends Gen Ed students to two other high schools than to stay at one where the Gen Ed kids only fed to one other high school.

But, it's a done deal w/no regard to balanced Gen Ed demographics. The rich people got their servants on the School Board (Hynes, Palchik, Keys-Gamarra) to carry their water yet again.

You post this argument all the time. Sooo glad about the change.

And I guess you’ll keep gloating until Thoreau gets overcrowded or you find out the new kids aren’t as welcome at Thoreau as you’d like to think.

OMG. Really? That's what you've come to? That is just sad that you are resorting to such scare tactics. Try to find a better way to live.
