[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So it looks like they will eventually close one of the QO middle schools?

Currently Ridgeview is projected to be 71 percent capacity if there are no changes and change to 44 percent capacity with sending Fields Road to Frost.

Lakelands Park currently has 85 percent capacity if there are no changes and goes down to 55 percent with some changes in the superintendent's proposal.  Although I'm not sure where these changes are coming from.

And it looks like they'll bump Travilah ES to Cabin John to make room for Fields Road to go to Frost.

I guess my question is why does Fields Road ES have to go to Frost, when their current middle school is close by(3.2 miles to Ridgeview vs 7.1 miles to Frost) and has capacity?

Unless it's like some posters have mentioned, they will eventually consolidate Lakelands Park and Ridgeview and close one of the schools.  Leaving just one feeder MS to QO?[/quote]

Regional programming model. Wootton region 4 and QO is region 5. You can't swap regions from MS to HS so if Fields is going to new Wootton it needs to also go to a region 4 middle. [/quote]

In the regional overview documents Crown HS is under region 5 so they will be swapping regions if Wootton gets moved to Crown.  [/quote]

The Crown building is under region 4 if Wootton gets moved there. Stays in 5 if it doesn't. [/quote]

Crown is under Region 5 Welcome to Region 5. Five Schools. Many Pathways to Success.
Every student begins with a strong local high school. Regional programs are designed for students who want to
explore a specialized area of interest, while maintaining the same high expectations and quality found in each

Crown will not be 5 because it is becoming Wootton at Crown.  It will be region 4.  Check the planning docs.  Crown would have been five in the prior options when Wootton was still on the parkway. [/quote]
