For some reason, the SB members looooove IB and are always gassing it up. It hits a lot of educational buzzwords that certain advocacy groups love. “Lifelong learners” and “global citizens.”

If FCPS is required to keep the number of IB high schools the same, they could possibly move IB from SLHS to the future West County HS. Moreover, if KAA’s IB students already live close to the academy, then they could easily continue with the IB Program. Of course, I have no idea how many KAA students live near the academy. And FCPS would have to engage with the feeder school communities on the pros/cons of moving IB out of one high school and into a new one.

Something tells me that the current KAA students aren’t going to be slumming it at public school. Lol.

Actually, the new high school will likely have a pretty diverse population. It is quite unlikely to have Langley demographics.

Isn’t Langley close to majority minority? Oh I see, you only count certain races in your quotas. How very racist of you.

No. I was talking about FARMS and non English speakers.

More: Langley is below 5% on both. NONE of those elementary schools considered are close to that. Some are not high FARMS or English learners --but none are below 5%. And, two of the schools are pretty high on both.

And, I live near there and that is fine with me.

Floris : 100% (Literally in Floris district lines)
Oak Hill : 95% (Very Small chance staying Chantilly with overcrowding there)
McNair : 90% (Small chance of staying Westfield or going to Herndon)
Coates : 85% (Small chance of staying Westfield or going to Herndon)
Crossfield : (75%)
Fox Mill : (65%)

Honestly both Crossfield and Fox Mill could go to South Lakes instead of the new HS and petty equidistant from those two options. However, it is easier to backfill Oakton with growth in Tysons. Hence higher chance of Crossfield being moved. Also Meren represents all of Fox Mill but only a fraction of Crossfield hence, the only option she has to protect South Lakes it to retain Fox Mill.

Floris: 100% (no brianer)
Coates: 100% (no brainer)
McNair: 90% (very likely)
FMES: 70% (the question is Meren)
Crossfield: 33% (Honestly, Oakton will be still better than the new HS)
Oak Hill: 50% (OHS’s probem is the middle school. It is very close to Franklin and should stay at Franklin and I don’t know if they create a new split feeder)

I am not sure I follow Oak Hill at 50%. Floris and Oak Hill are the two closest schools to KAA. Add in that they are trying to mange Chantilly’s capacity. I think it’s more like 90% Oak Hill gets moved to KAA. That will allow them to keep all the other neighborhoods being proposed to switch out of Chantilly by Thru at Chantilly.

They do have a problem at the middle school level, but they could fix that a few ways depending on who else ends up at KAA.

Easy. Make Franklin an AAP center which pulls kids back to Franklin, then rezone Oak Hill to Carson.

If for some reason Crossfield doesn’t end up at KAA. They could switch it to Franklin since the Navy kids already go there.

Easy. Make Franklin an AAP center which pulls kids back to Franklin, then rezone Oak Hill to Carson.

DP. Exactly the opposite of what should be done, which is eliminating AAP centers.

Agree. But, that won't happen. Too strong a lobby.

I think by making Franklin a "center" what they really mean is making it so in-boundary AAP kids for Franklin go there instead of having the option for Carson. Not necessarily a center that draws other kids from outside its boundary. Bringing those AAP kids back to Franklin would increase it's average test scores, increase club opportunities at the school, and help it to get better rankings from sites like greatschools.

Arlington’s Wakefield was more expensive (adjusting for inflation), and likely has the nicest gym and pool of any public or private high school in the state. But yes, KAA sets the bar much higher for FCPS. I certainly hope future facilities will be constructed to the same level in terms of design and amenities. For a wealthy area taxpayers deserve better facilities. Just go to any other nice suburb outside of Philly, Chicago, Boston, Atlanta, etc. They are leagues ahead of what FCPS typically builds.

there is a reason for that. kaa students and staff and faculty took care of the building. because it was loved.

FCPS has foolishly been dragging its feet on this. Franklin students should've been sent back to Franklin many years ago.

100% it is under capacity and it has dedicated AAP classes already. Plus, please get the Navy kids out of Crossfield, it will be better for everyone.

Navy kids never go to Crossfield. Some Crossfield kids choose Navy for AAP though.

No it actually doesn’t. They cluster the AAP kids in honors classes, but don’t appear to have classes with only AAP kids.

That's disappointing, because even a neighbor's kid who struggled with school was encouraged to take the honors classes. The counselor said the gen ed classes were more like remedial.

If Floris, McNair, and Coates get sent to the new HS, what would the be Westfield's new capacity?

Would they get Brookfield and/or some more of Centrevilles current kids? Oakhill as Emerald chase already goes there?
