But no rec is up. They send an email out but play hide the ball. Weird.[/quote]

Per the board docs agenda for Nov 20 meeting, staff recommendation is for Scenario B[/quote]

The weird thing is they are keeping that small bit of FS just N of 123 and W of Old Dominion.  It would have made more sense just to have everyone in that tiny bulge move to Churchill Rd as others nearby do.[/quote]

They wanted to avoid touching the HS boundaries, and that little parcel of land is zoned to McLean. If they'd swapped it to Churchill Road, it would have created something like a 3% split feeder at Churchill Road for that small sliver of Longfellow/McLean kids.

I'm inclined to agree they should swap it to Churchill Road and the Langley pyramid, but it's such a small area anyway I doubt it really matters. They'd also have to split the SPA (3003) because it straddles Dolley Madison. Again, I think they were trying to avoid doing things like that, though I don't exactly know why if it otherwise makes sense to do why they wouldn't just include it in this process.[/quote]

It has nothing to do with the overcrowding at Kent Gardens and should be left alone.  I don’t see them proposing to move that much weirder Churchill Road attendance island within the Spring Hill area to Spring Hill.  [/quote]
