I bet 75% of the current community will stay together and form a new great school at the Key location.
ASFS will continue to exist. I doubt it will change much unless the principal retires.
What are you talking about? A lot of ASFS will be redistricted to Key. They have to relieve the overcrowded at ASFS plus make room for all the kids that currently go to Taylor but could walk to ASFS, plus the “tail” of Ashlawn.
And then there is the Reed redistricting... I have no clue how staff is going to accomplish this.
Yes, I’m estimating that 75% of the current population will stay together and move together to the new Key location.
?
Yes, I agree about that amount will move to Key. But how does ASFS stay the same? You mean the focus/attitude will stay even if the kids change?
Yes, it's a very transient area with kids coming in and out all of the time. With strong leadership from above, much will remain the same.
EL and economically-disadvantaged %s will down some but it will maintain some diversity from PUs in VA Square. Likely no Mongolian communities.
But overall I think it'll be pretty much the same.
Really no. It prides itself as an international community, but all the State Dept children with foreign born mothers and diverse immigrants from apts live in Rosslyn.
New ASFS will be much more white, akin to Taylor or Jamestown. I suspect with STEM hungry Asian tiger moms, Science enthusiasm will wane (it already has, no more music songs about chemistry ).
The casual anti-Asian bias in this post helps explain why most higher-income Asians avoid APS altogether.
I can’t quite put my finger on it but this feels ironic....

Pp here. Haha. I’m actually Asian, just not the higher income kind. I was actually just saying that white suburban parents seem to value sports over stem. There are vanishingly few white students in our Kumon math class, b/c most of DS classmates are in travel sports. I think that attitude will seep through the school as population changes.

I suspect that less than 75% will go given that a good number of immersion students will stay with the building. Rosslyn and Courthouse will split between Taylor and Longbranch. ASFS will get all of the Cherrydale, the Ashlawn tail, and the Taylor part of LV, so overall, it won’t change too much— diversity and lots of rich homeowners. New Key will be similar. Taylor and Long Branch will probably shift the most in terms of getting lots of new diversity. ASFS principal staying on for at least several more years so it really shouldn’t change too much.
ASFS will be 50/50. half go to new neighborhood school at Key and other half stay at ASFS. They will have to take more than just the Taylor part of LV because Key will be way too full with all the Rosslyn/Courthouse/Clarendon (unless some PU there go to Long Branch, which frankly should happen as shift occur in the south to fill up Drew). So not much changing at ASFS except Rosslyn/Courthouse/Clarendon not going there. ASFS boundary will probably extend to about N Bryan St as their simply won't be room for all those kids the new neighborhood school at Key and frankly many of those parents would be just happy to stay at ASFS.
Didn’t long branch just gets its boundaries redone? Wouldn’t fleet have to take some planning units north of 50 in order for long branch to take additional kids north? I thought they were trying to move more of Abingdon into drew. Not in asf or long branch but I’m trying to follow your thinking here.

Isn’t there talk of eradicating exemplary projects at neighborhood schools anyway?
So tear out the science lab, etc from each non option school?
Good idea! Can’t wait until they go tearing all the really cool stuff out of Discovery. That’ll go over well. Give me a break.

If by “talk” you mean that one lady on AEM who has a solution to everyone’s problem and her plan to kill all exemplary projects because she didn’t like what her kids had then yes

I think 75% at new Key, 10-15% at ASFS, 10-15% at Long Branch. None to Taylor (who isn't already assigned to Taylor).

I wonder what impact the opening of Reed, shuffling of McKinley kids, preschool moves, etc. will have. There are so many moving pieces with the next boundary changes it’s hard to predict with confidence which busable PUs will land at any particular school.
