[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] They just wanted to add kids to South Lakes to shore up the school's enrollment and reputation, and South Lakes was surrounded by schools with more kids. So it was convenient to say South Lakes was below the acceptable "minimum" and other schools were above the acceptable "maximum." [/quote] Agreed. FCPS/Staff/Stu engaged in social engineering; but, refused to believe they'd be as "successful" as it was obvious that they'd be. Prior to redistricting, the South Lakes feeder ESes had more than enough students to fill the place. But, for whatever reason... about 150 ES students per grade disappeared rather than showed up at Hughes/SL... SL PTSA claimed Reston houses were "small" so liberal, white, UMC Reston parents just happened to decide to move when their kids got to be over 80 lbs, or something like that, ... Since it was utterly obvious that 81 lb Reston kids simply couldn't fit in Reston homes, Staff/SB decided to fill SL to capacity with a bunch of 81 lb kids from Fox Mill/Floris. Once full with 81 lb kids from Fox Mill/Floris, 81 lb kids from magically expanded Reston homes began turning up at SL, so SL needed an emergency expansion... Had Staff/SB understood the obvious - Fox Mill had more than enough 81 lb kids to support Reston home expansion magic - Staff/SB wouldn't have "needed" to make Floris a split-feeder or have lowered the percentage of 81 lb kids at Westfield; but, without moving Floris, we Fairfax residents wouldn't have gotten the privilege of paying for the SL expansion.[/quote]
