[quote=Anonymous]It helps to remember Fairfax, Falls Church and Vienna are small jurisdictions that physically are located within the Fairfax County borders. Vienna is a town and lacks legal authority under VA law to have separate schools. Vienna kids attends FCPS schools. Same is true for the towns of Clifton and Herndon. Fairfax City owns four schools and has its own School Board, but contracts with FCPS to operate its schools, which are also attended by students who live in Fairfax County. Falls Church City operates its own schools. Other parts of Fairfax County also have Vienna, Fairfax and Falls Church mailing addresses, so you always need to check the specific address to determine the school assignments. The neighborhood assignments within FCPS periodically change, so there is no guarantee that you will always be zoned for the same schools. That is also the case in Arlington, Loudoun and Prince William Counties, which also operate county-wide school systems. [/quote]
