I don’t think we know exactly. It seems like from some “back of the envelope” estimations based on square footage and acerage of the site, that it would end up as around a 2000-student school, but could perhaps go as high as 2500. 2500 would make it in line with many FCPS HS, 2000 would be on the smaller side but still comparable to some of the smaller HS like South County and Falls Church. Many schools fall between 2000-2500 - Edison, Langley, and the HS population at Hayfield are all in that range. [/quote]

Falls Church is being expanded to 2500 even though its enrollment is closer to 2100.  [/quote]

If it’s due for a renovation, it makes sense to increase the capacity a little at the same time. Also it might be needed to take on capacity from a lot of the neighboring schools - I know Annandale is pretty packed right now for one. [/quote]i think the renovations are nearly done, if not complete. [/quote]
