[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is this typically how a boundary change is done? Small tiny tweaks or is it because there is a pandemic? Will there be more tweaks in the future?

Moving a tiny part of an already split feeder hardly seems like a solution to the over enrollment at McLean and under enrollment at Langley.[/quote]

The response to the overcrowding has been to relocate and install a modular that increases McLean’s capacity by 350 students, propose a boundary change that by 2024-25 would reassign over 9% of Longfellow/McLean to Cooper/Langley, and do a deeper analysis of growth in Tysons that may support a future permanent addition.

That is more than a tweak.  If we weren’t in a pandemic and they had more confidence in their ability to project future enrollments they might have proposed to move slightly more students. Maybe they should hold off entirely until they have a better handle on post-Covid enrollments, but reassigning more students now than they are now proposing would be risky. [/quote]
