Wait, what? If it only move 90 kids then who cares? I wonder if that's why they pulled in Hunt Valley? They need way more numbers?

I think is is 100 kids based of FCPS numbers.

100 students moved out of WSHS eliminates the 2 trailers added this year.

This also closes a split feeder which is one of the stated goals of this exercise.

But it’s 300 students to get down to the stated 105% capacity goal.

Good lord, and 105% still sounds overcrowded to me. I can't remember from the maps but was there another option to move more kids out of WS than just that small amount in Sangster?

Yes. I think it was moving the Hunt Valley kids.

I think today’s a lost cause. Whatever issue they’re working through, they gave up yesterday. The earliest this is resolved is mid-morning tomorrow, I bet.

Wait, you don’t think that Thru is up for the challenge? Maybe, just maybe, they should do an RFP next time rather than just relying on a sham shell process to select the consultant.

Wshs class of 2026 is at 735 students.

Irving 8th grade is at 579 students

Usually, the 8th to 9th grade grows around 50-60 students from new students and AAP kids returning from Lake Braddock.

Let's be generous and say that the 8th to 9th grade growth is unexpectedly large, with the class growing around 70 students, ending up at around 650 for 9th grade 2026.

Just from the giant class of 2026 graduating, WSHS will drop by around 85 students.

Combined with eliminating the Sangster split feeder and sending all of Sangster to Lake Braddock, the two changes equal a roughly 185 student drop at WSHS between June 2026 and September 2026.

That should be a big enough drop for WSHS.

We will find out their plans when the maps actually drop.

It could be something completely different than anyone expects.

Whelp, it sounds like they are both screwed if they don't move more folks further down Old Keene to Lewis.

Why do AAP kids choose to move from Lake Braddock?

Will they move anyone to Lewis?

AAP ends in 8th grade.

The kids have to return to their zoned high school, unless they csn find a loophole.

Do you know if changing the AAP centers (as I think is being proposed), would then change the WS numbers?

Typically IB if in an AP school, and AP if in an IB school.

They should, right? Wasn't part of this exercise adding to underpopulated schools?

It’d mostly impact Irving numbers. Fewer than 40 WSHS students transfer to Lake Braddock.

Yes. They need to move students to Lewis.

Not by much.

It would only really affect Irving numbers.
