[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does anybody have old studies saved to their computers from the time Langley had its enrollment beefed up, Westfield was built and opened, and from the all contentious 2008 study where South Lakes received several students from Westfield, Oakton, and Madison post renovation?

I would love to see what the maps looked like before today.[/quote]

Langley's boundaries weren't affected by the 2008 South Lakes boundary study.  That study impacted South Lakes, Westfield, Oakton, Chantilly, and Madison.  Janie Strauss and Stu Gibson agreed to keep Langley out of that study.  Herndon was included in the study but ultimately there were no changes to Herndon's boundaries at the time.  Strauss went to Great Falls in 2011 when she was running for re-election and bragged about keeping Langley out of the 2008 boundary study.

In the mid-90s, the Great Falls area west of Springvale Road was moved from Herndon to Langley.  In 2021, single-family neighborhoods in Vienna zoned to McLean (at both Colvin Run ES and Spring Hill ES) were moved to Langley.  This January the rest of Spring Hill zoned to McLean (apartments/condos in Tysons) was reassigned to Langley.

Older Board presentations typically are no longer be available online.  At least one document relating to the 2008 South Lakes study, however, is still available at https://go.boarddocs.com/vsba/fairfax/Board.nsf/legacy-content/867E6G251DFC/$FILE/SB%20Presentation%202_28_08%20on%20West%20Cnty%20Boundary%20Study%20PDF.pdf[/quote]
