[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think crossfield as a feeder to western makes a lot of sense from an equity standpoint. Hopefully they use this opportunity to help balance SES.[/quote]

Many of the communities potentially getting pulled into the WHS have similar house prices/ household incomes to those zoned to Crossfield with the exception of some outliers east of West Ox rd. Nice job trying to get people fired up though! [/quote]

Balancing SES is not the issue. But, the Western school should have a very good balance with plenty of high achievers.

The decision should be made on what works best for the most kids.

To me, it is clear:
reducing overcrowding
neighborhoods
proximity

Option A--but add all of Floris students.
It reduces overcrowding at Chantilly.
Frees up some space at Westfield where there is lots of new construction and with minor adjustments can help free space at Centreville.
Reduces long bus rides to Oakton
Keeps neighborhoods together.[/quote]
