DP. It may be rude, but PP is correct. It is difficult to understand your statements. Perhaps you should take a course in English grammar. Learn what an "article" is. Your taunt should read: "I suggest you take an English AP course." And, I think this is what you meant to say earlier: "Enough is enough! Has any SB member told you that there is a better option? If yes, please share. Of course, this does not make sense to defend your rant. Because, obviously, the best option is to send Crossfield to Western. At least two School Board members have suggested that. |
Oh I took it honey, got a 5 on the exam! Loved skipping freshman English. |
We received an email about naming zooms, but that's it. |
You are not fooling anyone. |
Look, we can all recognize your writing style, we know you're a Crossfield/Navy AAP mom. |
I'm not sure where you're getting this? The FFXNow article says 111 townhomes and 4 of them will be affordable. Out of those 111, probably half will have families. Most of those kids won't be in high school for another 15 years probably. |
111 townhouses, not 500 homes. |
I am the original poster and I am in fact not an Oakton parent but believe what you want. The infighting I predicted to happen did over the last two pages which people now have to skim through and involved mud slinging on both sides including ridiculous accusations on English proficiency levels. |
I agree with this. The final scenario will not include Crossfield and the board will not even discuss that school. |
Read the whole article. From the article: "In total, the Flint Hill and Redwood Plaza redevelopments will deliver approximately 581 new homes, 15 public parks totaling 4.5 acres, a 10-foot-wide shared-use path along Arrowhead Drive, three new bus shelters and multiple high-visibility crosswalks." And, FWIW, townhouses are homes. Apartments can also be homes. What arrogance to think that only single family houses can be homes. |
You must know something the rest of us do not know. Crossfield was only left out of one scenario. It is included in three of them. |
It's 111 in place of the Flint Hill 3 office building. They are also replacing buildings 1 and 4, plus the Redwood Plaza building. It's 581 new homes total for that office park. And any families moving in will have kids in high school much sooner than "15 years probably." Don't forget, that's just one redevelopment out of many that have been approved. There's the Fair Oaks Business Park - over 700 more homes, Fairfax Ridge with 400 more homes, the AT&T site with 854 more homes, and the ICF International site with 550 more. This surge in development isn't something that can just be shrugged off. It needs to be planned for. |
| The above is why I'm happy with the new 5 year review cycle in the 8130 policy. All these projects weren't shovel ready this past review so their numbers aren't reflected in the capacity projections. By forcing a review every 5 years the board will have to consider projects that are coming online rather than waiting until there are so many kids packed into a school for the principal to have to ask them to do something about it. |
They may need it sooner than five years. Have you considered that? |
Dumbest take. If it's a real problem the principal will speak up. If it’sa fake problem, then we need your idiotic approach. |
