[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Crossfield is on the boundary area for the Western School. Crossfield is one of the schools with a weird boundary that makes it hard to know where the kids should go. Oakton is not one of the schools that is being targeted for reducing the student body population. It is easier for the families that want to stay at Oakton to fight for that.[/quote]

NOT ONE person in Crossfield boundary is closer to Oakton than the new school-not by a long shot.  With one neighborhood exception, they all go to Carson. The others go to Hughes.

It is not a borderline issue--unless you wish to make it borderline with South Lakes--which is also much closer to Crossfield families than Oakton.

I didn't say Oakton was closer to Crossfield then Oakton. I said Crossfield is on the outer edge of the area being considered for the Western HS. The comment was that people at Oak Hill wanted to stay at Chantilly and knew they didn't have the choice but the Crossfield families at Oakton might be able to stay at Oakton. My response was that Oak Hill is geographically closer to the Western HS then Crossfield is and that Crossfield is on the edge of the boundary area the County is considering. I didn't say that there were not closer HS to Crossfield, only that Oak Hill is the closest ES to Western and is at a HS that is overcrowded. [/quote]
