[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are you allowed to transfer from Westfield HS to Chantilly HS without actually moving to an area assigned to Chantilly?[/quote]

Yes, you can apply (but see the above for too many applications out of Westfield part). The justification is that you are transferring for the Chantilly Governor's STEM Academy, which is a program not available at Westfield. Google "FCPS pupil placement" and look at "academy transfers."  You can transfer for your freshman year onward, even though you might not take academy class until 11th. But it only gets renewed each year of you are on a path to take a certain number of or a sequence of academy classes.  Which is not hard, because the have engineering/ CS/ robotics, etc tracks.

The downside?  No busing for any pupil placement but TJ. So parents are on the hook for transportation. But a lot of the Westfield boundary is near the school, and I believe there is a general public bus route.  Plus the library across the street where kids can study until they can be picked up.
