Western High School Boundary Map options (A/B/C/D)

Our street walks to Va Run and they are trying to move us to Bull Run while leaving neighborhoods seven miles away at VRES! Make it make sense!

Did they freak out about their little Franklin Farm island? That gets moved in all three scenarios (I agree that it should move, it's dumb).

LOL. I heard that. A clueless parent who literally said “distance doesn’t matter so much as keeping them with friends.” For a first grader!!!

That island needed to go, but most of the complaints I heard were about Navy moving to Chantilly from Oakton from parents of younger elementary kids. Making up all sorts of nonsense reasons. Also, franklin farms makes no sense to continue going to Oakton, but that's been said many times.

Scenario 2 MS seems to pick 2 random SPAs from each high school pyramid and sends them to a neighboring middle school. See:

Dogwood -> Carson -> South Lakes
Navy -> Rocky Run -> Oakton (yes, it wasn’t just the Chantilly part of Navy that was moved)
Poplar Tree -> Liberty -> Chantilly
Crossfield -> Franklin -> South Lakes
Oak Hill -> Franklin -> Skyview (at least for this one, the whole elementary school moves together)

No one wins with any of these scenarios. Someone is going to have to get moved. It all sucks.

I believe Lees Corner and Navy parents rightfully called out the Chief of staff for claiming they had informed everyone for the last 18 months about these changes which is entirely untrue. These maps were introduced on Tuesday.

You missed Hunter Mill - Carson - South Lakes. It’s so bad that it has to be a mistake. If they cleaned this all up in Scenario 2, I think it’s the winner.

Did anyone ask how getting rid of AAP centers at middle schools would or would not affect the proposed MS changes?
