I don’t think that was the original agenda so someone is definitely changing things up- gotta stay on top of it this summer.

On June 23 the BRAC will review REFINED scenarios.

Ricardy Anderson newsletter dated June 10, 2025 provides-
The Superintendent’s Boundary Review Advisory Committee (BRAC) will review refined scenarios and provide feedback on behalf of our community during their next few meetings. Share feedback with your pyramid BRAC representative.

So they are going to provide new maps based on the community feedback/outrage from May? Will they incorporate new divisions with the western high school purchase?

I know we all feel constantly dragged and on-edge about final proposals.

Yes. According to their posted timeline, they are doing “phase 2 data analysis and scenario updates”. Hopefully those minutes will be posted as the others have.

As for the western high school purchase, that’s a complete bomb thrown into this already-in-motion-process. Seems western Langley could be in jeopardy again.

There was a School Board work session yesterday and the acquisition of the KAA site only got passing reference.

I think Thru will adjust its proposals at least once more this summer without regard to the KAA acquisition, and then perhaps have an updated scenario this fall that takes the KAA site acquisition into account.

If part of your justification for buying this site and opening the new school is to relieve kids from their 8-10 mile commutes to Oakton, it gets increasingly difficult to leave boundaries in place that have Great Falls kids traveling 10 or more miles to Langley.

Of course that's why Great Falls is unhappy about this purchase and raising questions about process and transparency. It gives FCPS another bite at the apple when they thought they were safe. If it was families from Oakton or Chantilly getting rezoned to schools they didn't want to attend, they'd be just as unhappy and vocal.

Again, trying to make fetch happen. How many hours a day do you spend seething about the neighborhood to your north?

+100
The PP is so crafty - making up garbage about Langley somehow being upset about the KAA purchase (why would they be??) and trying to get that whole narrative going again. I have to wonder about this person’s mental health!

You need to accept that people will come here to discuss the potential impact of the deal that just got announced on the boundary review.

If that bothers you perhaps you should avoid the Internet, or at least this forum.

DP. The potential impact of the new school has nothing to do with Langley. You’re so silly and we all see right through you.

Happy to discuss with sane people, not the Langley-hater obsessed though. It really bothers me that you keep putting down Herndon High pyramid kids, who have done nothing to draw your ire.

You continue to put down Herndon high in your quest to convince people that western gf should be moved. Please stop doing that.

You're conflating posters and your argument is convoluted.

The bottom line is that the KAA acquisition is going to result in further scrutiny of boundaries in western Fairfax that you hoped to avoid.

You mean, you are holding your breath and crossing your fingers and toes that your wish will come true. It won’t and you sound increasingly disturbed and desperate with every post.

The Langley serial-poster has so many fires to put out these days.

When FCPS announced that it had bought the King Abdullah Academy, the most critical posts ALL came from Langley/Great Falls parents. She can claim they were just asking about the process or the funding, but the reality is that they'd prefer FCPS not acquire this property.

Why? Because it increases the likelihood that, at some future point, Langley kids will get moved to Herndon. Thru Consulting is proposing to move an attendance island in Tysons that attends Spring Hill ES (primarily a Langley feeder) from McLean to Langley, and that will probably happen. The county's Residential Property Applications Dashboard projects that, over time, that island could yield an additional 475 or so more high school students. If even half that growth materilalizes, Langley ends up overcrowded.

Meanwhile, you have renovated Herndon sitting with hundreds of empty seats. One potential source of students to fill those seats were kids who now stand to attend the new high school. If they attend the new HS instead, this makes it all the more likely FCPS will look to fill some of those seats with Forestville kids. There's no need for this to happen now, and other things could happen in the interim if, for example, there was somehow enough growth within Herndon to fill those seats or FCPS decided to get rid of IB and hundreds of kids at Herndon who've been transferring to South Lakes returned there.

But the KAA acquisition changes the dynamics in a way some Great Falls families find unsettling, and that's why they are the ones leading the charge to challenge the purchase. If the serial Langley poster thinks that puts Langley in a bad light, she should tell them to pipe down. At this point, she's the one trying to make fetch happen.

This is why the woman is posting so much on Nextdoor. What the Langley people do not realize is that the potential students for KAA do not live close at all to Herndon High School. Not everyone is like Great Falls and thinks a thirty minute bus ride for their kids is appropriate. And, the person screaming process the most lives in a neighborhood that is less than three miles from Herndon.

The only students who could possibly be considered for Herndon would be Coates or McNair--and they are much, much closer and have an easier commute to Carson/KAA site. And, Herndon PTA turned down those kids many years ago because of demographics. But, even so, many of the Langley families are much closer to Herndon with an easier commute.

I've no problem with Great Falls families staying at Langley. I don't want my neighborhood school changing either. But, I no longer am supportive of them. Why? They are trying to destroy a wonderful solution for an area that has been needing a high school for many years.

One of the complaints is that the bond was for money to purchase land--not build a school. Do they really think that when people voted for that bond that they did not think a school would be built?

Sour grapes.

Bless your HEART! You are just trying so, so hard, I can practically see the nervous sweat through the screen. And who is the “serial Langley poster”? You just sound completely unhinged. And I don’t even live in the area you’re obsessed with. The only think I find “unsettling” is someone who *also* doesn’t live there, yet is so deeply anxious about where those kids go to school.

Face it: the focus is on the new KAA school and those boundaries. No one cares about Langley/Forestville - just you. Why? Because there is no issue that needs resolving there. Be well.

Oh, there is more than one of us. And, the Nextdoor poster and comments on here are pretty similar. And, we KNOW that the Nextdoor poster who screams about process lives in Langley boundary and the support of her responses on Nextdoor comes almost entirely from Great Falls. The arguments on here are very similar.

DP. Serial Langley poster is the person who logs in and makes 5 or 6 posts at a time to this thread and the KAA purchase thread, several times a day. There will be a burst of them within about 15 minutes all in the same style and saying the same thing over and over. I tried counting their posts since the KAA purchase news went public and got to over 25 just from 6/17 and 6/18 before giving up. They are heavily invested in trying to steer the conversation a particular way but are heavily outnumbered by people who stand to benefit from the new high school and are having none of it.

Anyway, no one wants boundary changes for their kids. I think the school board is starting to get that, but man it’s shocking that they ever thought this would be a seamless process.

Also, a little telling that you are trying to inflate your numbers. Millions of people at your military-parade style. What a tool.

I've only a vague idea of who Sandy Anderson is. And, by the way, I'm not the post counter.

I agree: no one wants boundary changes. But, where I live, they are planning tons of them--and this new opportunity at KAA gives us a chance for stability. And, incidentally, should not have a negative effect on any other school. It could only help the neighboring communities.

Question: why do you resent that?

2 minutes is an impressive response time. You must be refreshing your browser all day long. What a sad waste of life. It's beautiful outside - go enjoy the weekend.

If the serial Langley poster thinks that puts Langley in a bad light, she should tell them to pipe down. At this point, she's the one trying to make fetch happen.

Bless your HEART! You are just trying so, so hard, I can practically see the nervous sweat through the screen. And who is the “serial Langley poster”? You just sound completely unhinged. And I don’t even live in the area you’re obsessed with. The only think I find “unsettling” is someone who *also* doesn’t live there, yet is so deeply anxious about where those kids go to school.

Face it: the focus is on the new KAA school and those boundaries. No one cares about Langley/Forestville - just you. Why? Because there is no issue that needs resolving there. Be well.

PP’s post makes sense. Obviously the Langley/Forestville people care about the KAA school or they wouldn’t anxiously be posting on Next Door or getting their break-away citizens group to put out a “press release.”

You, on the other hand, sound totally unhinged.

When FCPS announced that it had bought the King Abdullah Academy, the most critical posts ALL came from Langley/Great Falls parents. She can claim they were just asking about the process or the funding, but the reality is that they'd prefer FCPS not acquire this property.

Why? Because it increases the likelihood that, at some future point, Langley kids will get moved to Herndon. Thru Consulting is proposing to move an attendance island in Tysons that attends Spring Hill ES (primarily a Langley feeder) from McLean to Langley, and that will probably happen. The county's Residential Property Applications Dashboard projects that, over time, that island could yield an additional 475 or so more high school students. If even half that growth materilalizes, Langley ends up overcrowded.

Meanwhile, you have renovated Herndon sitting with hundreds of empty seats. One potential source of students to fill those seats were kids who now stand to attend the new high school. If they attend the new HS instead, this makes it all the more likely FCPS will look to fill some of those seats with Forestville kids. There's no need for this to happen now, and other things could happen in the interim if, for example, there was somehow enough growth within Herndon to fill those seats or FCPS decided to get rid of IB and hundreds of kids at Herndon who've been transferring to South Lakes returned there.

Wow! Yes! I just recently read some of the posts on Nextdoor regarding KAA. How do those two women find the time to post those lengthy responses on that app? Are they really only concerned about the FCPS budget?
