[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It is so puzzling that that Sangster neighborhood is upset about being rezoned to... Lake Braddock of all places.

It’s so puzzling that others feel the need to tell neighborhoods how they should feel about being moved from a school community— one that they are well established in. [/quote]

It’s puzzling that Sangster families feel the need to complain about going to Lake Braddock when other neighborhoods around, including those in Hunt Valley, Daventry and West Springfield elementary could be moved to Lewis. Those neighborhoods also feel part of the WSHS community but they could be moved to the other side of the mixing bowl. [/quote]
So Sangster parents should fall on their swords for the greater good? Hunt Valley was offered South County and they rejected it. Nobody wants to leave WSHS, of course they’re going to fight to stay. [/quote]

That Sangster neighborhood was marked to attend Lake Braddock in all versions of the maps.  Map 1 and Map 2 were never meant to be stand alone maps.  Maps 1 and 2 each showed the 2 different priorities BRAC was taxed with, one of which was eliminating split feeders.  Map 3 combined those 2 directives into a single map that represented maps 1 & 2 combined into a single format.

It is misleading to imply that Hunt Valley and Sangster were swapped.

Sangster was always marked to leave WSHS for LBSS.

In fact, part of Sangster off Hooes Rd was selected to get rezoned to South County.  The BRAC committee has been helping Sangster families, because that Sangster neighborhood rezoning was reversed.  So don't say that BRAC is not doing their jobs or not helping Sangster families.

The BRAC reps have to recommend maps, or Reid is going to pick.  They are doing a great job trying to follow their directives and keep as many neighborhoods as intact as possible and as much within their community as possible.  Lake Braddock is part of the Sangster community.[/quote]
