[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, a few years ago Wakefield Forest was a split feeder to Frost/Woodson and Poe/Annandale. The dividing line was Wakefield Chapel. Now it all goes to Frost/Woodson.

I do think that the re-districting of many kids from Fairfax Villa to Frost/Woodson came as a surprise. I don't know that they would have changed the WF feeder pattern otherwise. But at the time there was a lot of buzz about how overcrowded Annandale was, so who knows.

But I know a lot of people who have bought into WF neighborhoods who will be very unhappy if they now take it away from Frost/Woodson![/quote]

I guess that's right, but there were also people who bought into the remaining Annandale SFH neighborhoods who didn't expect FCPS to then systematically redistrict so many of the other SFH neighborhoods zoned for AHS to Falls Church, Lake Braddock, Woodson and Edison.  [b]Is it only the views of the Woodson people that count?  Might there not be some benefits to aiming for greater SES balance between the two schools?[/quote][/b]

Based on what I saw from FCPS, the answers were yes, and FCPS does. Not. Care.[/quote]

FCPS Facilities does not care.[/quote]

They better care.  The decisions have overcrowded Woodson and turned Poe MS into an under-enrolled 75% FARMS school.  It's totally ridiculous when Frost sits next door at 12% FARMS.

Either FCPS will clean this up or lawsuits will be filed in due course. [/quote]
