[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Personally I think the real problem is that the local community wants a traditional high school, but the school personnel that have evaluated Skyview know that the building and grounds are a long way away from being a traditional HS.  The school board and gatehouse are trying to find ways to give the community what they want, but it is going to be costly and its boundary adjustments will have repercussions on a lot of people that they won’t like.  It will come down to who FCPS wants to piss off less.  The people living around Skyview, the people who are forced to move to Westfield, or the general taxpayer.  Making Skyview a magnet only upsets one group.  The traditional route will be a much larger group.[/quote]
I know you refuse to give up on this, but all of it has already been discussed in public and voted on by the school board. The area desperately needs a traditional school, the community wants a traditional school, and the board (and CIP) identified the need for and voted for a traditional school.  There is only a small group (you included) that wants something different.[/quote]
and you've failed to identify how we resolve all the overcrowding at the western schools without this new school being dedicated to students from the overcrowded areas - not a magnet which would primarily take students from the schools that are not overcrowded.  The solution isn't to keep stacking more and more trailers onto the western high school properties until there isn't any more room.[/quote]
