[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some of the parents of older elementary school students at Crossfield think of Oakton as an elite school. That's why. [/quote]
The loudest ones don't even have kids at Crossfield anymore.  Their kids are 7th and 8th graders.[/quote]

Their kids went to Crossfield and are going to be zoned to a HS based on their ES.

Their kids are the ones immediately impacted. I have an 8th grader at Carson who might be moved to the new school. It is exciting but it is also a little scary. They are moving to a school with no established teams, clubs, or classes. Parents of kids in grades K-4 will send kids to a school that has full teams and a slate of clubs, there will be room to grow but they are going to walk into a new building with some established activities. Look at it from the eyes of the parents whose kids are going to be the one establishing what your kid will inherit.

It is a big change, one that I am excited for but not everyone is.   [/quote]

Boo hoo. Bunch of coddled brats. I started at a brand new HS years ago and it was FINE![/quote]
