[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They have two grades coming this fall with 800 kids in a building they currently think can handle about 1000.

So if they want future classes beyond the 9th and 10th graders starting this fall it seems they’ll have to retrofit and expand Skyview in any event, and if they are going to expand Skyview further it might as well be the neighborhood school previously agreed upon by the School Board.

It’s by no means clear the state would authorize another Governor’s School in Fairfax, and the opt-in model is a very imprecise way to address overcrowding, since most kids would come from schools considered less attractive, and not necessarily those that are most crowded.

[b]If they’d decided at the outset they wanted a small magnet with only 250 kids per class, they could have done that without spending as much money, but it would seem that ship has already sailed. [/b][/quote]

And, it would not solve any of the overcrowding in the western high schools.  Not to mention that a magnet is not needed.[/quote]
