[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]6404 is Seema's SPA. Pretty clear they and 6401 should have gone to Westfield. They border Westfield neighborhoods and are very far away from CVHS. [/quote]

100% agree.

who's going to stand up at the meeting and point out she lives in 6404 and 6404 was moved in fourteen different maps to WF?[/quote]

I don’t think you are going to be able to revive an earlier proposal that would leave Centreville with only 1825 or so kids, if that’s what you have in mind. Westfield is freaking out about going down to 2083. [/quote]

I don't think losing 100- 150 students has the same effect on classes, electives and staff as losing 600-700 students.

Overcrowding at Centreville was one of the reasons given for buying the new school. The current plan only moves out 70 kids and leaves it still overcrowded.[/quote]

Centreville has lost 400 kids over the past few years.  Pull several hundred more out as originally floated and the cumulative impact is equal to what may happen at Westfield, plus Centreville would have 300 fewer students.

You are not going to get what you want at Westfield by gutting Centreville.

Where did the 400 kids go? If that's just due to an aging population in the area, then expanding the capacity seems very foolish.[/quote]

Over the long term, keeping high schools open and adding some capacity when schools are renovated has served FCPS better than closing high schools. That doesn’t mean Centreville still needs to be expanded to 3000, nor does it mean its enrollment should be reduced to 1800 now[b] just so Westfield can remain at 2400.  [/b]

Westfield had 2750 students this year. [/quote]
