[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am pretty sure that the two big reasons Shrevewood is getting screwed is because the white Timber Lane parents are worried that they will be zoned out of McLean into Marshall and the Stenwood parents don't want little brown kids in their school.[/quote]

Actually, the Timber Lane families on the other side of Rte 50 are worried that they'll be rezoned to Jackson/Falls Church because that's where a lot of the neighboring kids go. There's an entire neighborhood of families that would either move or send their kids to privates - I've seen all the shiny new houses in Greenway Downs. Those people aren't staying if they get rezoned out of McLean.[/quote]

FWIW, Greenway Downs, like everything south of Lee Highway, is already zoned to Jackson.  It's the Timber Lane families north of 29 that get fed to Longfellow/McLean.  [/quote]
Sorry, I meant 29, not 50. No, Greenway Downs families that go to Timber Lane feed to McLean. I know several.[/quote]

Appreciate the correction of 50 vs 29. I suppose the definition of Greenway Downs could be elastic.  Are any of the "Greenway Downs" families you are thinking of that go to McLean south of 29? We had 2 kids at Timber Lane and every kid they knew south of 29 went to Jackson. [/quote]
