It’s going to very interesting to see what they do if they make this a general HS. Fox Mill is a big neighborhood. They may not want to pull it out of SLHS. There is also the reducing transportation time vs. reducing split feeder issue. I don’t see how they solve both because the new HS won’t have room for everyone. Look at
who people think should attend this new school… Fox Mill, Emerald Chase, Franklin Farm, Chantilly Highlands, who else? There’s isn’t room for everyone so someone is either keeping their long commute to Oakton or staying at Westfield or South Lakes


Fox Mill used to go to Oakton and South Lakes was just fine without it.


Actually it wasn’t; hence, the large boundary change in 2008.

And then South Lakes got expanded after that outside the renovation queue.

Fox Mill isn’t that far from South Lakes and should stay there. If anything they should look to adjust the boundaries so it goes to Hughes as well.

The last thing anyone should be implying is that we need to build an addition to KAA before the sale has even closed.


Why? The Western HS was proposed to relieve SLHS, Oakton, Westfield, and Chantilly. Basically Caron is going to feed the new school instead of three or four way split.


South Lakes isn't overcrowded like Chantilly, no one travels as far to South Lakes as Crossfield travels to Oakton, and capacity at the new school may be limited. So, nice try (again), but I wouldn't assume that everyone currently zoned to Carson will feed to this school. Boundaries may change, and they may conclude they still need some split feeders, even if they can reduce the three-way split at Carson.


LOL, I'm not trying anything difficult. Read past CIPs to understand why the new high school was proposed. Check how close Carson MS is to the new HS.

Don't overcomplicate it.



It's complicated by the fact that Carson has a large capacity for a MS and the new school would appear to have a small capacity for a HS.

Also, reducing student commutes to Oakton may take priority over sending everyone now at Carson to the new HS.

Sorry if reality bites.

No worries, it won’t bite.

Carson MS will be a feeder school for the new HS, just like Herndon MS to Herndon HS, Hughes MS to South Lakes HS, Johnson MS to Fairfax HS, and Cooper MS to Langley HS.

If you lack common sense, just wait and see.

This purchase is a coup for Fairfax County. This will be the nicest public school facility (of its size) in the County, perhaps in the entire State. The original build cost was around $100M (excluding $15+M in other improvements). If the FCPS tried to build something similar (they wouldn’t have, it’s too nice), I suspect it would have cost us taxpayers closer to $200M.

It’s not complicating at all.

Carson MS has many out-of-boundary students (for AAP). These students return to their home high schools.

Or it could remain a split feeder like it has been, and like Franklin, Thoreau, Holmes, Poe, and Kilmer have been.

You're the one making assumptions that at this point are premature.

Oh, it will definitely happen. However, Fox Mill will go to Hughes in the process of making it happen.

Oak Hill goes to Franklin MS and would absolutely go to this new HS given being less than two miles away. I'd argue it is the closest elementary school outside of maybe Floris.

I would guess that the Crossfield families who claim they have an Oakton address want to stay at Oakton HS even though 90% of the school lives on the other side of west ox rd and is much closer to KAA. I will be really angry if they ruin this for the Franklin Farm families.

Nice spin.

You are the one making a claim that Fox Mill should stay in SLHS. I am just pointing out that’s very unlikely. Hopefully, you are not too dumb to understand this.

How close are the middle schools you listed to the nearest high school? Do you know the distance between Carson Middle School and the new high school?

It is 0.5 miles.

Shh. Don't tell the greedy Carson parents. They think this new school exists entirely for them.

Honestly I think Forestville ES parents are toast. This is an equity obsessed 12-0 Progressive School Board. If you live south of Route Seven you are you are 100% going to Herndon HS now. If there is any silver lining those North of Route Seven have a fighting chance.

Given that South Lakes isn't overcrowded like Chantilly, and the distance from Fox Mill to South Lakes is much shorter than the distance from Crossfield to Oakton, it's quite likely. Sorry.

Here you go.

So the bottomline is you just don’t want Fox Mill to be assigned to the new school.

Wait and see.

Look the Tysons growth can be resolved really easily now that you can move Crossfield into the new HS. Backfill Oakton with Flint Hill from Madison HS. Then backfill Madison HS with Westbriar from Marshall. Marshall has more vacancy now.

You can even now move more Navy ES to Chantilly now that is doesn’t have Oak Hill ES.
