[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So what’s the solution? Go back to moving HV? Stop the RV?

This is very messy. [/quote]

Do the scenario 3 for Rolling Valley, and close the split feeder at Sangster, sending all of them to LBSS. 
Lake Braddock and WS are completely comparable. I get being upset if you have a middle school kid at Irving, but for anyone with younger kids it should be no big deal at all. [/quote]

Also Scenario 3 and sent those 150 or so kids from Hunt Valley to South County. It will put South County slightly over capacity but it would take more than 200 kids out of WSHS which would give it much needed breathing room. You could get WSHS down to 90-95 percent capacity.[/quote]

That created a split feeder which is against policy 8130.[/quote]

They didn’t think they could eliminate all the split feeders (especially those that cover a large geographical area like Gunston, Sangster, etc.) but they did want to eliminate the very lopsided splits … the ones were 75% go to one middle or HS and 25% go somewhere else. When they ran the numbers in the scenarios, if all of those neighborhoods south of the parkway went to SCHS instead of WSHS, it would have made HV about a 65-35 split which was ok under the established guidelines.
