[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Case study in FCPS hypocrisy. FCPS says split feeders are bad and should be limited. OES parents don’t want to send their kids to Jackson for GenEd with icky Falls Church kids. So FCPS makes TMS a three-way split feeder to Madison, Oakton, and Marshall HS. And AAP parents still get choice of Jackson and Thoreau. [/quote] The boundary change wasn’t specific to OES. Four schools were affected, because of the increased capacity at Thoreau after the renovation. Talk about hypocrisy, how many complaints have I seen about overcrowding and/or sending kids to a school farther away when there is one closer they drive right past yet when FCPS actually addresses that (because TMS had more space and was a lot closer than LJMS for these kids), people find something else to complain about.
