It is more than a handful and there is a lot of new construction in the area being projected. It is very close to Westfield.

cont. and, it was in ALL scenarios.

In all 4 scenarios, 50 or so kids were moved from Chantilly (over by Wegmans) to Westfield.

There is a lot of development but they aren't single family homes and you can't enroll ghost students. There is no universe where FCPS doesn't leave at least 2000+ students at Westfield after drawing up Western's zone, and the path of least resistance on that is just leaving some of the Herndon kids at Westfield. Could you move all the Herndon kids out, and then move over Chantilly kids? Sure, but that is a lot more disruptive AND the Chantilly families will fight to stay at CHS. You can't take any more than they are already moving out from Centreville because that would leave Centreville enrollment too low. There's nowhere else to find kids.

It has to be more than 50 because it shows Chantilly losing far more than Oak Hill numbers.

And, you would move kids in walking distance of the new school to Westfield when there are kids who live far closer to Westfield?

Who? Kids at Chantilly who live closer to Chantilly? Kids from Centreville who live much closer to Centreville?

You aren't "moving" kids to Westfield who are already currently zoned to Westfield. What a weird way to phrase your point.
