[quote=Anonymous][quote]I guess you really do not live in northwestern Fairfax County: north Reston, Great Falls, Herndon PO, Vienna PO. Forestville has standard Fairfax County developments like Holly Knoll and Riva Ridge area. Both of these are similar to Shouse Village [Vienna PO] which is the site of Colvin Run.

Nor are you familiar with what was not included or not included in any of the boundary change processes over the last 30 plus years. So start at the elementary level and first look at who goes where. The whole mess was designed to infill Colvin Run and 1st fill Forestville with the Herndon, Holly Knoll, south of Route 7 developments. Backfill Great Falls with what's left. So anything towards or in the Tysons area could utilize Colvin Run [domino] and there are other schools in the Hunter Mill corridor that are under like Forest Edge and Sunrise Valley.

FCPS selects groups of schools for boundary processes and has not done anything big since the South Lakes change. It used to be active but now is really just political but never had such oddities as the West Potomac-Mount Vernon situation in prior decades. This prior board hands down wins least responsible. So people complain about Fritsch but spend an hour on program capacity and enrollment for a block of elementary schools and it's obvious Blake Lane Park was not necessary. It's also obvious that Hunter Mill reps and an at large member [therefore all 3]who lives in that area were negligent.

So despite Moon's contributions for years I was not sorry to see Omeish get the FCDC endorsement instead of him. Keyes Gamarra should have been replaced.

Trying to figure out your point.  Do you want Forest Edge and Sunrise Valley to go to Langley?  I'm not following.  I do agree with your claim that it is political--but, it has ALWAYS been political.   Are you familiar with what Kathy Smith did with her neighborhood elementary school?  Cannot get much more political than that.  [/quote]
