[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wait, I thought that area's whole sob story was that they were all walkers and a new boundary to Westfield would turn them in to bus riders. If we are paying to send high school bus routes through all of Lees Corner anyway, I don't think their argument holds a lot of water. A few high school kids playing frogger does not make an entire ES boundary "walkers".[/quote] Increasing bus ride by 5 to 6 miles and increasing it more than 30 minutes is significant..[/quote] How is it possible to increase the commute by 5 to 6 miles when Chantilly and Westfield are only 4.8 miles apart? [/quote] Because Lees Corner is literally across the street from Chantilly. If you out then at Westfield, they have to then travel an additional 5-6 miles. Westfield is very far down 50 and the traffic and lights are horrific.[/quote] Math isn't your strong point, is it? If your commute to Chantilly is 0.5 miles, and your commute to Westfield is 5.3 miles, that is not an increase of 5 to 6 miles. [/quote] Ok so I’m off by 0.2 miles then? You sound idiotic. Why are you so triggered by Lees Corner staying at Chantilly? It makes sense and I’m not even a Lees Corner parent. I have a hunch you are RIO trying to throw the heat off of yourself.[/quote] I'm not triggered by LCES staying at Chantilly, and I actually have a dog in this fight. What does concern me is hyperbolic statements and people who [u] don't [/u] have a dog in the fight thinking their ridiculous statements have any weight.[/quote] To take a neighborhoods that are extremely close to their current high school and move it to a high school that is much, much further away and separated from all the other neighborhoods attending to that school is just wrong. Chantilly is already losing one school. Take the kids who go to Cub Run and be done with it. Westfield has new construction to fill the space, as well. [/quote]
