[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The third Woodson rep is wacko but I could see someone in Region 5 from Westfield wanting to move Langley kids to Herndon to increase the odds that Westfield kids near Herndon will get moved to the new KAA school.  Still really poor form to prioritize a boundary change outside your region affecting other people's kids. [/quote]

I would love to see the BRAC comments from Region 1.  I find it hard to believe that Herndon pyramid may not have suggested a Forestville move.[/quote]

There’s been zero indication so far that people in bounds for Herndon, Lewis, etc. actually want a bunch of affluent neighborhoods moved into their schools, because they know it isn’t going to move the needle. [/quote]

I sat next to Lewis people at one of the meetings.

The one with kids in the pyramud just wanted them to get rid of IB so smart kids stop transferring out of Lewis, and a renovation of the facilities.

The empty nester wanted FCPS to move an entire WSHS elementary school into Lewis, assuming to raise her property values since her kids were long graduated.   She did acknowlege that wouldn't actually fix anything because those kids would use the IB loophole to transfer, with Lewis then looking at 500 transfers out of the school instead of the current 250+/- IB to AP transfers.

I think the people actually zoned to Lewis want to be an AP school with nice facilities so their neighbors stop transferring to other schools.[/quote]
