Boundary Review Meetings

Anonymous
it’s really not fair for the people who have a meeting tonight. how can they prepare. if they can’t make the meeting they have no clue if they are being moved or not. the silence from reid and the school board is just terrible. they really don’t care

The problem is that no “homeless” kids are affected by this. Otherwise we would have hourly updates.

Maybe we should figure out how to loop in trans kids into this so the county will throw infinite resources towards it.

Maybe we should construct our own map where all the SB members houses get reassigned. Not their neighborhoods, just their houses, to the least convenient pyramid available.

We’re 60+ hours past when this updates tool was supposed to be released. Is this a sick joke? Without any real update in nearly 48 hours.

They should, right? Wasn't part of this exercise adding to underpopulated schools?


Nothing in the scenarios really helps Lewis or it's students in any meaningful way. Ridiculous.



Agree. I hope scenario 4 makes some attempt to help Lewis students (if they won’t just close the school outright).


Help them how? By zoning in other kids who will never go there? Like the 300 or so kids zoned there now who go elsewhere?


and 300 or so transfer out of Herndon also

I literally can not wait to sit on tonight's meeting and hear how they are going to explain themselves.

Officially 8 hours until showtime and nothing.

They will maybe just say sorry for the delay, if that, and move on as if nothing happened. Don't expect anything more.

If kids are reassigned there, some may pupil place but not all.

Bottom line is that they’ve got to increase enrollment at Lewis. Seems like that could be accomplished by bringing more kids over AND increasing the academic offerings so they are incentivized to stay.


Lewis absolutely needs something now that they're at 1540 kids. I had no idea FCPS would let a singular pyramid operate at such a different level than the rest of the county.

The first step to increase enrollment at Lewis is to do a residenct check at WSHS, followed by making Lewis AP and bringing back the 300 transfers out of lewis.
