[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Have they ever moved 1000+ students out of a high school before and left 800+ seats open? That is a huge number.

Putting aside the very real issue of having to lose so many classmates, teachers and course options for the Westfield students, that is an incredible misuse of taxpayer dollars and resources. [/quote]

No, and what's going to happen when this all shakes out is what happens every time FCPS picks a school to be the designated "loser".

Any MC or UMC family who can figure out how to get their kids into the great schools right next door to Westfield will do so, by hook or by crook. The school will then not have enough academically minded students to offer sufficient AP classes and electives, so more MC students will disappear and the school ratings will tank.

People with kids won't move into the school zone, because the school has a low rating. In a few years, Westfield will have 1600 students in a school built for 3000, most of them low income. Exactly like Justice---so close to much better schools.[/quote]

Its crazy to do this to what is a functioning, completely average FCPS HS at the moment. [/quote]

But you can tell from an earlier post that some people think it’s a perfectly acceptable outcome. As long as they get theirs, they are ready to bring the marshmallows to toast over the dumpster fire FCPS is leaving behind at Westfield. [/quote]

The parents at adjacent schools should be concerned, because their schools will be overcrowded with Westfield refugees. [/quote]

Yep, exhibit a: West Springfield HS.[/quote]

What does this mean?[/quote]
