[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not sure the zone map has been released.  TC will be divided into two schools and the boundaries will be set by the school board, but some school board members have talked east-west.  The official plan is at - https://www.acps.k12.va.us/cms/lib/VA01918616/Centricity/Domain/1026/facilities-specifications-high-school.pdf

That is not a plan, its set of specs that any new school must meet IF it is built.  It does not say where, when, or if any new school is to be built. [/quote]

That might have been an original intention, but that's not the way the school board voted.  The school board voted (unanimously, four times, over almost a year) to adopt the document as "requirements" for "compliance."  Of course there's no real estate yet, although the school board looks at things like abandoned office buildings to shunt the west end kids into from time to time.  The only final, unanimous decision is, when the new high school goes forward, both the new high school and TC Williams will both be 9-12.  No other option was even considered (Minnie Howard as 9-10 and TC Williams as 11-12 was not even raised in the school board's votes).

Why not just reopen GW as a high school, since it previously was one. And, reopen Minnie Howard as a middle school. [/quote]
