[quote=Anonymous]I know that plenty of kids from the Gambrill Road and Daventry areas attended Lee High School for years with no issues. It is not like you are sending them across the county.

That being said, there is absolutely no appetite to move anyone from West Springfield into Lewis. That will not happen (probably should, but won't). And in the end if the Bren Mar people put up enough of a fight they will likely either stay at Edison or go to Annandale.

Leaves Lewis in a pickle. People say that a 1500 student high school is normal. And that is the case in many places. But Lewis is also poor. It is also high ESL. So in comparison to other FCPS high schools, it is not the same and something should be done. Next year it will only hit 1420 - 1430 students and will likely fall under 1400 the year after (unless students are moved in or something is done to keep the current boundary students at the school).

FCPS should have done something 10-14 years ago (including not moving Daventry).[/quote]
