When is FCPS going to wake up and help the students and teachers at these two schools??

*hint* It will involve standing up to the bully parents at Langley and Carson regarding boundary changes

DP taking it back.

Increased FARMS: result of policies in Herndon. You know, the people who live there. Elect different leaders.
Falling test scores: see Increased FARMS does not affect the kids who are not FARMS. Are the AP kids' scores also falling? Average scores are just that--if your kid is a good student, the kids who are not in their classes will not affect them. Most of the ESOL kids are likely in different classes. And, the ESOL kids who are in advanced classes are likely doing just fine.
ZERO aid from FCPS: doubtful that this is true. Herndon likely gets much mroe than Langley.
Pedophile teachers: can happen in any school. Period. Has even happened at Langley.

Still waiting for answers to these questions.

So if high FARMs is basically irrelevant, then you won’t mind if we bus them to Langley?

Why are you trying to get rid of them?

If they are not causing your children academic harm, what exactly are they doing that you really, really, REALLY want them elsewhere?

Are they hurting your property values?
Are they a they a threat to your children's physical safety?
Are they a bad influence on their behavior?
Or do you just not want poor kids around?

Have you told the FARMs parents that you want their kids gone? I suggest you bring that up at the next PTA meeting.

No answers to these questions either?

Yes, this is a great idea. How do we make this happen. It makes way more sense for these kids to go to Herndon AND it’s cheaper for the county. Win-win.

This isn't going to happen because even when enough people do jump up and down to insist on equity, the county still finds a way to do cater to the few at the expense of the many.

Just ask the folks over at Save Blake Lane Park how they feel about keeping these far flung, south side of the toll road kids in the Oakton Pyramid. People in a economically and culturally diverse community, came together, jumped up and down to be heard. Their request? If you want to keep the far flung Silver Line cohorts in the pyramid, then build the school out near the Silver Line and leave the 10 acre community, over near the Vienna orange line alone.

Promises were made, by those running for office, including Palchik, to save the park, but at the end of the day, she and others are back peddling, the school will still get built on the park land, the neighborhood will lose a 10 acre park (the only accessible one in all of Oakton -- it has a public parking lot) there are many other beautiful parks, much bigger than this one in greater Oakton, but none have a parking lot and most are only accessible through tucked away cul-de-sacs, backyards or horseback. So in other words not community parks, and not accessible to FFX County residents. Our tax dollars pay for these lands, but we can not access them.

The county is actually going to spend $35 million to build an elementary school, where it isn't needed; take away a much needed open space, to appease a group of folks, who, just don't want to send their kids to their neighborhood schools, because they feed into Herndon HS.

This problem runs deep and I don't think anyone has the courage to fix it.

These are kids, not chess pieces. Why would you send them to Langley? They live in the Town of Herndon. I doubt any kids at Langley live in the Town of Herndon.




I can assure you there are many kids that live in Herndon who go to Langley.

Really? Which ones? It looks to me like the entire Town of Herndon is totally within the Herndon High boundary.

Has a decision been made on Blake Lane Park/Elementary School?

I don't really have a dog in this fight directly, but having lived near an elementary school in the past, isn't it still essentially a "park" (as in -- there will be grassy fields and playgrounds and parking lots) that you and others can use? The only thing you can't do at an elementary school is let your dogs run. So, is that what you are concerned about? I just don't understand what the loss is since I considered it a real plus to be next to an elementary school when I had kids who weren't even in the school yet. We went to the playground all the time to have them play on the equipment and to use the fields (when school wasn't in session -- nights, weekends, summer). Very few people were there, which I never understood.

... no pun intended when I said "I don't have a dog in this fight..." ha ha!

That's bullshit.

And if there is no problem with high FARM schools, then you will have no problem if we go ahead and bus them into YOUR school. Right?

Dear asshole bully, please take a second to look at the FCPS boundary lines. Anyone with an iq over 75 can understand that there are a lot of kids who live in Herndon and go to Langley. Do you understand ????

The entire Town of Herndon is within the boundary of Herndon High School. Period. I stated that a while back and you said I was wrong. There are other areas also within the boundary of Herndon High School, but no neighborhood in the Town of Herndon goes elsewhere.

What is bullying about stating a fact?

Some people don't like facts, so they attempt deflection.

Please tell us what affect FARM kids have on other children. Clearly you feel they are hurting your quality of life. Why are you trying to get rid of them?

If they are not causing your children academic harm, what exactly are they doing that you really, really, REALLY want them elsewhere?

Are they hurting your property values?
