Thank you so very much for all the feedback. My girls are rising 7th and 9th. I've kept my search in the Mills Park Middle for houses and believe me there is not many to choose from. How do I find out where my girls will go to school if there is a reassignment. That would be such a shame if all this time I'm limiting my search for these specific schools and dont even get into them. I appreciate any remarks. Its a bit confusing if you ask me!!!!
We toured many of the schools in Cary due to high ratings. Initially we were looking in the Davis Middle district and when we toured the school they told us there was not chorus or drama. My rising 7th grader is extremely smart; but extremely interested in the arts. I was so disappointed upon hearing that that we continued touring and when we went to Mills Park my daughter fell in love with the place. Great academics and also a big music and drama dept. Does anyone know, if we cant find a house here, other schools in Cary that would be a good fit? Thanks
It looks like Mills Park Elementary school is capped for 2013-14. Does anyone know if the middle school is reaching capacity or not? We are looking into relocating to NW Cary over the summer and would like to enroll my up rising 7th grader in the middle school. Also we are probably going to enrolle my up rising 2nd grader to private school so that the kids will be on the same calendar.

Mills Park Middle School is not capped. Also, a lot of families have children at Mills Park MS on a traditional calendar and then younger siblings at either Highcroft ES or Alston Ridge ES on Track 4. There is actually a decent amount of overlap in the vacation schedules between the two schedules. You may want to consider it if schedule is the main reason you're considering private school for your younger child.
I have been reading the posts on the overcrowding of schools in west cary area. I have seen it first hand. Can anyone tell me how a town like cary allows so much knew construction of houses, town houses and apartment complexes without seemingly having a plan to handle the influx of residents in terms of schools. is it a disconnect between the county school system and the local town?? lack of coordination or cooperation??

Lack of coordination and cooperation. But, the State and County keep their kingdom sacred.
The Town was aggressive in the past, and got their hands slapped by the state.
What is the situation in Apex? Is it as crazy as West Cary? Also, are the plans for the middle school and high school for Bella Casa area solid?
