Freedom Hill is projected to be 23% under capacity in 2024, so it has space.[/quote]

I saw that in the CIP today, and it makes me worry that instead of rezoning kids from Shrevewood to Stenwood, then Stenwood to Freedom Hill, they would just try to rezone those of us along Idylwood near Pimmit Drive to Freedom Hill, since the apartments off of Pimmit Drive are already zoned for that school. That would probably force us to move (not to mention drive down our property value) because both DH and I work in DC and it would require us to drive through Tysons traffic to pick up from SACC and then back home through Tysons traffic.  That could add over 30 minutes to the commute of whoever is doing SACC pickup.[/quote]

I can understand your concern, but I would push hard to make sure Stenwood gets included within the scope of the boundary study.

If you look at what they are doing with the overcrowding at Glen Forest, they initially proposed to include just 1-2 other schools in the boundary study and are now proposing to include every elementary school in the Justice pyramid as part of that study based on the initial community feedback. I don’t think they need to include every elementary in the Marshall pyramid in a Shrevewood study, but they do need to include Stenwood and Freedom Hill.[/quote]

Thank you - who should I (and my neighbors) contact to make that request?  [/quote]
