Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS)
I dont think option B will win because there was least 1 school board member (sorry I don't know the name) going on and on about this school bringing relief to Oakton. |
Yes but he's the only one. Option B also keeps the new school smaller. More room for an Academy or Magnet type program in the future. |
Both Karl Frisch and Kyle McDaniel seem to want to see the western most part of the Oakton district moved to the Western HS. McDaniel personally moves to the new Western HS under Options A, C, or D. |
Oh please. What about the London Towne area, or the Meadows neighborhood. Lots of difficult family situations. |
Because part of Crossfield is in Oakton? But Oakton HS is in Vienna, not Oakton. So the mailing addresses of those moved don't really matter as much as whether the boundaries are reasonably sensible, help Chantilly, and cut down on transportation times for those with long commutes now. |
| You can just look at the farms rates for the feeder elementary schools and that can give you a guesstimate of the HS. Trickier with split feeders. |
And, Centreville is in Clifton..... See how this works? |
I already knew how this works, but thanks for reinforcing my point. Plenty of homes with Centreville addresses go to Westfield, not Centreville. |
If McDaniel personally moves in some scenarios and not others, he really should recuse from the matter. |
Why? I'm guessing all SB members live in neighborhoods that could be effected in some way. |

Personally, I think Option D is the front-runner. They probably started with Options A and B, but McDaniel wanted to provide relief to both Oakton and South Lakes. So, they came up with Option C, which would provide relief to four high schools (Centreville, Chantilly, Oakton, and South Lakes). The problem with Option C is that too many students (2,142) would be going to Western School. Thus, I think they tweaked Option C by carving out a small number of students, resulting in Option D. Under Option D, Western School will have 2,068 students. That number aligns with today’s presentation (2000+). This is just my speculation. |
Option C for South Lakes. Missed this one - * South Lakes enrollment declines from 2410 to 2002. Fox Mill, Floris north of West Ox, and South Lakes part of Crossfield move to Western |
| Crap my kidfs are fuced, no more oakton. |
| Are they sure that KAA can hold 2000+ students as proposed in option C and D? They are building new town houses in the coates, mcnair area. The population is increasing. With option C or D, the new school will be overcrowded quickly in a few years. |
