[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Centreville families don't want to be moved to Westfield. [/quote]

Thru is already proposing to move part of Centreville to Westfield.  It's likely going to happen whether KAA reopens as a neighborhood school or not.  [/quote]

Which part?
No one wants to move from Centreville to Westfield. Centreville is a neighborhood school
with a much lower population so kids have a shot at sports teams, leadership roles etc.
[b]Westfield has too many poor kids [/b]and keeps losing academic class offerings. The location is inconvenient and unappealing and the admin is terrible.

What is wrong with you? It is disturbing that you even think this way, but it's repugnant that you put this into writing. [/quote]

This is the problem with the boundary study and the reality of the situation.  Just like all politics is local so is one’s concern.  Parents are primarily concerned about how the study will impact their kid(s).

FCPS has a very inconsistent product offering across its system.  The boundary study is not designed to improve the product but rather make the offerings more consistent.

If the result would lead to making the schools better there would be support from the community.  Instead the effort will only serve to lower the standard for the product so the community resists.

It really is that simple.
