New Schools & Program Moves (2019)
Why is APS Changing Elementary School Boundaries Now?
• New Alice Fleet Elementary School will open in September 2019• Drew Elementary will become full neighborhood school in September
2019• Goals of this boundary process:– Create new attendance zones for Fleet & Drew– Balance enrollment among the 8 elementary schools involved
• Changing boundaries now will:– Apply to all current 2018-19 students now in Pre-K through Grade 4 at
Abingdon, Barcroft, Drew, Henry (Fleet), Hoffman-Boston, Long Branch, Oakridge and Randolph
– Help families prepare for the changes that will take effect in September 2019
Note: APS will continue to need relocatables to manage enrollment across elementary schools
