[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just watched the community comments. Can someone explain why that Candle lady said her kid has to cross 50 to get to Western? Literally NOWHERE in the Crossfield boundaries has to cross 50 to get there. That lady sounded insane!![/quote]

That confused me, as well.  But, I think I was more focused on the fact that her younger child could not ride in the car to Oakton with her older child.  
Wonder how her child gets to Carson?

I think that was in reference to the possibility that younger siblings may have to attend Western if their home ends up in boundary, even if they have an older sibling who opts out. Hence why these Crossfield moms are fighting it, several have a middle school and a late elementary schooler right now.

I think there are valid arguments to avoid Western, but traffic/crossing big roads is most certainly not one of them considering what you have to do to get from the Crossfield area to Oakton. If your teen isn't on 66 they are on back roads which might actually be worse. [/quote]

Accidents can happen with a driver going to any high school.  Years ago, there was a horrible accident on 50 when kids were returning from Oakton.  It could have happened to any high schooler anywhere, but it was tragic.[/quote]
