[quote=Anonymous]First of all, Annandale is under capacity. It can definitely take on a feeder or two, particularly when you consider IB seats moving to the IB school.

Second of all, the West Springfield poster. No, obviously all of Lee's feeders aren't going to West Springfield. Rolling Valley is in the slow process of essentially becoming a WS feeder. Two, maybe three, might be added. But what about the current schools?

White Oaks would go to Robinson, Sangster would either go to Robinson or South County (more likely). Cardinal Forest and Orange Hunt would go to Lake Braddock. Based on the current under capacity, suddenly you have seats.

Another point. People seem to forget that there was a census and essentially pulling South County, Hayfield, Edison, Annandale, West Springfield and Lee IB seats would be sufficient to fill an entire school. That would fix the capacity issue, fwiw. All of these schools would be losing students to the HB Woodlawn IB model school. That would make moving feeders around more easy.

And yes, Lee was chosen because it's a perfect storm. Its demographics indicate that it's will run into state oversight and it's centrally located among all of these schools.
