[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The other thing which I find strange is how bunched up some of the high schools are. Fairfax HS and Woodson HS are very close together and that causes them to have strange boundaries. It would have been better if Woodson HS were located a bit more to the west. That way you could cut the current Woodson district in half and make the City of Fairfax plus the eastern part of the Woodson HS district as the Fairfax HS district and then take the western part of the Woodson HS district along with the remaining part of the Fairfax HS district and call it the new Woodson HS district. That way the boundary between the two would make more sense.[/quote]

Woodson and Fairfax are 3.3 miles apart, and Langley and McLean are 3.5 miles apart, but the winner is Madison and Oakton, which are only 1.4 miles apart.  That - along with the requirement that all Fairfax City students attend Fairfax - has a lot to do with Oakton having boundaries that stretch from Vienna to Herndon. [/quote]
