[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Carson has over 17% FARMS.  However, it is also over 50% AAP.  So, I am guessing that it would be well above 20% FARMS.

Right now, Carson has Coates, McNair, Floris, Fox Mill, Crossfield plus AAP Oak Hill, AAP Lees Corner, and AAP Navy. So that is why it skews lower than 20.
I find it doubtful that Crossfield, Fox Mill, and Oak Hill will all be in the new school.  My guess is two of them.[/quote]

Of the three, I think Oak Hill is for sure in because it’s solves the capacity issue at Chantilly and also is closest to KAA.

[b]Not sure what happens between Crossfield and Fox Mill.[/b]  [/quote]

What happens is that many Fox Mill families want to go to the new school and little crossfield families want to move.   I'd say TOO MANY Fox Mill people (deep in SLHS territory) want to move to the new HS that they think the only way is to advocating Crossfield backfilling them in SLHS.  Thanks for the laugh.

FCPS is going to make the adjustment least disruptive possible.  They'll move the far western portion of SLHS and Oakton HS into the new high school, that's it.  No oakton to SLHS move, no Langley to Herndon HS move.  Why stir up a hornet's nest? [/quote]
If Crossfield resists a move to KAA that might actually give them the cleanest solution for aligning middle schools. Send Oak Hill to Carson and Crossfield to Franklin (send anyone at Franklin from Westfield to Stone.) Then Carson feeds entirely to KAA and Franklin only splits between Chantilly and Oakton. There isn’t enough room at Hughes to take all of Fox Mill, even if they send Herndon AAP students to another center. Carson also continues the Fox Mill Japanese immersion program, which makes them slightly more difficult to decouple. [/quote]
