[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Geez it’s not hard. Fox Mill, Floris, Coates, Crossfield, McNair, and Oak Hill would be ~2500 kids across four grades. It’s very appropriate size for a school, and plenty of room for every elementary school. In case capacity is not there at new HS, they can kick out AAP from Carson and backfill in some ninth graders from Coates/McNair to Carson for a time being.

It’s just that Westfield/South Lakes would all lose some of their best students. And to a lesser extent for Oakton/Chantilly.

FARMS rate for Chantilly/Oakton would be like 20% and Westfield/South Lakes would be around 40%

New HS ~15%. Parents would fight to get these lines drawn. Both closer and higher quality of students. It would probably be the fourth best HS in the county after TJ, McLean, and Langley.

It’s unclear this school has capacity for 2500 kids and it’s certainly not likely they will send 9th graders to Carson.  There’s a good chance it could just end up with just four of five feeders, not six, and that the FARMS rate will be well over 15%.  [/quote]
