Dp. Many in Fox Mill want to move just like there are people in Crossfield who want to move. The "knew what we were getting into" argument applies across the board. Fox Mill is not unique. If you want to stay at South Lakes, you should email your rep and let the board know. RIO is making their voice heard, the Fox Mill PTA tried to make theirs heard (for Skyview). You can and should speak up too, if it matters that much to you. |
I don't think any PTAs/PTOs should be claiming to represent the whole school in front of the school board or at Gatehouse. |
Fox Mill’s PTA has not taken a stance on the potential change, at least not that I know of. They have been trying to meet with Meren to discuss the change and she has cancelled meetings and then not been available. I don’t believe the PTA is trying to push a position but understand what is happening and give parents a place to talk to their Board member. Meren has chosen to not engage. |
Navy wants to go to fairfax. Well say for example FCPS zones part of brookfield out of Chantilly, they would have some room for Navy as the Modular unit would still provide that. |
|
They have yet to move anyone out of Chantilly--in fact, they just put more in. Remember, we do not know who is going to the new school and will not know until summer. |
They should reach out to the at large board members. |
Absolutely not. |
Speak for yourself. I am a Navy parent who would much prefer Chantilly to Oakton. |
Me too, I really want overcrowding, modular spaces and a 30+ year old renovation at Chantilly. |
Actually, if FCPS chose not to lay a finger on Madison, West Potomac, and Justice, Chantilly could have received an addition over its academy wing. Doors 3, 5, and 6 would gain stairwells. They could have also built an addition above the gym hallway, where Door 10 gains a stair. |
|
I just hope they keep it geographical because the name of the school intimates it will be a magnet, which the community doesn’t want at all.
If Reid and her cronies spins it that way in the event they backtrack, we must rise together and sue them! |
The absolutely not was in response to someone saying that Navy families want to go to Fairfax High School. |
| Is there any possibility that we will get boundaries out of them before June? |
I mean, sure, there is always a chance but realistically, no. They have to come up with their plan, present their plan, allow discussion, make changes to their plan, allow discussion, finalize the plan, and vote on the plan. Maybe it goes a bit faster because of the smaller number of schools involved but I expect them to use every day that they have. |
