FCPS comprehensive boundary review

[Anonymous]

I fail to see how moving Forestville kids will improve Herndon High School. Higher IQs, higher GPAs, higher incomes will not suddenly make the current Herndon students any better. Will the average test scorew go up? Probably, but that does not help my kids.

I do however think it is ridiculous that homes that are undeniably MUCH closer to Herndon, are zoned for Langley. If you paid more for your house, wirh a Herndon address and assumed your home would be zoned for Langley for eternity, I am sorry for you. .

I think what you mean to say is that you want to steal some of your neighbors’ home equity via boundary adjustments. Theft via FCPS equity policies.

Langley parents will use the money and connections. No Langley kids will move to Herndon schools. It will cost them too much social capital to let that happen.

Good! I was not looking forward to having to work the concession stand with a disgruntled ex-Langley parent anyway!

I really don’t want to deal with the insufferable Langley parents (‚cause those will be the ones we’re sent) at our school. I do hope they get hit by a large karma bus though.

It’s fascinating to see you so desire to move Forestville kids to your school pyramid and then hate them so much at the same time. Someone could write a dissertation on your cognitive dissonance.

H*ll no. I really do not want them at our school. Keep them in their pen.

Please let your school board rep know your feelings!

Thank you, I have. I truly hate the people over there. All we would here about is their children who poop unicorns and daisies being unable to cope at HHS while their SES peers at HHS run circles around them academically. We’d need to set up a nursery for those and their parents.

Reid wants 6th in the middle schools, so we can't shove 9th in there too.

Anyone buying a school THAT FAR from their zoned schools has to be intelligent enough to realize they can be rezoned.

We have 23 middle schools, 22 high schools, and three secondary schools.

Since a typical middle school does not have 3/4 of the capacity of a high school, I don't know how we turn all the MS into 6-8 schools. If anything it would be easier to turn the three 6-8 MS (Glasgow, Holmes, and Poe) back into 7-8 MS, although it would require boundary changes to push kids at some at the ES in that area further west and perhaps to eliminate the AAP center at Belvedere.

People don’t buy schools. And your logic makes zero sense. You’re just troll strolling.

People absolutely do buy schools. That's why the Great Falls parents are in such a tizzy. They paid a Langley Premium for their Herndon house.

If their inflated equity was due to prior School Board members neglecting their fiduciary duties and putting their own interests first then it was ill-gotten gains anyway.

When I think about the challenges that other schools and county residents face, Langley residents whining about a potential loss of home equity surely calls for a bulk order of the tiniest violins in stock.

It’s nuanced, so I forgive you for missing my point. Wasn’t complaining about loss of home equity. Go back and read it again.
