[quote=Anonymous][quote]The situation with kids who live Centreville and Clifton going to Fairfax is a result of weird boundaries due to all Fairfax City kids attending Fairfax, even though some are closer to Oakton and Woodson, and Madison/Oakton/Fairfax/Woodson being so close to one another. It's also not ideal, as there are families at Fairfax who'd like to send their kids to Centreville, which is closer.[/quote]

You must not be familiar with that area.  The kids that go to Fairfax who live a mile from Centreville are NOT Fairfax City residents.  Fairfax City is relatively compact.  It is true that some live across the street from Woodson but go to Fairfax because they live in Fairfax City.  However, this has nothing to do with those who live near Centreville and Chantilly.  They do not live in Fairfax City.  They go to Fairfax because Centreville and Chantilly are overcrowded.  Just as many kids who live near Chantilly go to Oakton.

We will never have perfectly balanced populations in our schools.  That would require constant shifting of kids.  And, even then, it would not work.
