Boundary Review Meetings

[Anonymous]

Does anyone know if BRAC or SB members have seen the maps?

[Anonymous]

Yes. BRAC got the maps last night.

[Anonymous]

Interesting, how do you know? I thought BRAC was done/out of the process from this point forward.

It’s fine if they want to defend their decision but they need to be transparent.

AHA! It's one of our "grumble,grumble" friends.

Nope, not me, sorry to disappoint.

The draft is posted on board docs. They backed away from a lot of scenario 4.

So can someone with a better understanding help me with the timeline of what comes next --

These are Reids Recs?

Then people can sign up to talk about them at the public meeting with the hope of changing someone's mind?

and then who would make changes? Does the SB and Sandy Anderson just universally listen to everyone and say yes or no or can there still be changes?

Can anyone who has a better understanding of the recommendations document explain what the "Flagged Sites for Future Review" means in terms of what will happen for the 26-27 school year? I am a Bull Run Elementary school parent that was set to transition to Virginia Run next year. I am assuming this means that Scenario 4 stands and our neighborhood will still be moving but don't know where to go to get information. I've emailed our BRAC 3 separate times and cannot get a response, so I'm assuming that isn't going to work now either.

The only changes are in the actual superintendent’s presentation. That change has been deferred and your school won’t change for 26-27. The schools on the last chart won’t be changed.

Meaning it will not change from the previous Scenario 4 boundary or will not be making boundary changes at all? We have several neighborhoods that were slated to change within Scenario 4. Thanks again.

That's it? I can't believe they spent all that time and money and that's it.

Scenario 4 is dead. The only changes are what’s explicitly stated in Reid’s presentation.

Thank you very much for clarifying!

Not us - so our high school kids are being moved unnecessarily. Clearly not worth any more of our effort indicating why move is unnecessary and not a good idea as they are going to do what they are going to do and probably the move in our case is popular for many families with Wolftrap elementary school students.
