Why? What does scenario 3 do to Oakton?

It strips a lot of the high performing feeder schools from Oakton back to Chantilly. Oakton is currently a top 10 school in Virginia and the region. It would kill the academics.

So then Chantilly would rise in these rankings? Who cares?

Scenario 2 has Oakton at 103 percent and SLHS only at 83 percent. Seems unbalanced. Maybe they need to move Crossfield over to SLHS.

Why on earth would anyone zoned to another FCPS care about Oakton's "ranking"? We could not care less.

Probably students left behind? Chantilly will become even stronger. Powerhouse really.

I'd always heard the Navy moms were full of themselves.

What high performing feeder schools get moved in scenario 3?

Sounds like some of those genius Oakton feeder schools should be moved to Herndon or South Lakes to help those schools out academically.

Literally, no one cares.

You don’t think the school board cares that a top 10 Virginia school will lose their high performance feeder schools? Think again.

DP. What do you think they've been doing to McLean the last few years, moving kids out of Colvin Run and Spring Hill, or to Marshall, moving kids out of Wolftrap?

B/c Crossfield was sent to Skyview, otherwise, Lees Corner would be sent to Skyview instead.

No. Lee's Corner would not be sent to Skyview.

They have set up #1 for failure if you look at the elementary schools.

Either that. or this is like a Rubik's cube when you fix one side, but end up messing up the other one.

There is not perfect solution, but these options are screwy. And, what is with the Wolf Trap area? Where are they going and why are they in the mix?

The maps just reflect the decision that the School Board already made in January 2026 to move much of the Wolftrap area from Marshall to Madison and create a new Kilmer/Marshall attendance island. They could have drawn the maps to exclude these areas and it wouldn't change anything relating to Skyview.

If Crossfield doesn't go to Skyview now they certainly will be going to SLHS at the next review. Oakton will be the most over capacity school left in the region.

Wasn’t Franklin farm considered for SLHS?

I wonder how the RIO people would feel if they’re supposed peers from Navy and wherever else get moved to Chantilly. If Oakton is no longer a really high-performing school then why not go to the school that is closer? Seems like no matter what, the status quo is not going to be the case moving forward. Maybe RIO people should’ve thought of this before pushing so hard to stay at Oakton.

Massive amount of new construction really close to South lakes.
