[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s obvious the old boundary process will be completely scrapped and a new one started for this new high school. My guess they will target plus/minus 2,500 students for the new school.

FCPS could look to MCPS for how they are doing the boundaries for all the new high schools opening up there.  [/quote]

The boundary process can stay in tact for the eastern part of the county that wouldn't be impacted. This impacts Chantilly, Westfield, Oakton, South Lakes, and maybe also Herndon and Centerville pyramids. [/quote]

While folks in the eastern part of the county won't be redistricted to the new high school, they are claiming they will save hundreds of millions by purchasing this property.

I'd like to see how they might put some of those savings to use renovating and/or expanding schools in eastern Fairfax first before they move kids in that part of the county.

Right now it's looking like western Fairfax gets expanded schools + a brand-new school while eastern Fairfax just gets the promise of boundary changes.  FTS.  [/quote]

Sounds like you want to move![/quote]

Didn't West Potomac get an expensive upgrade recently?[/quote]

But it doesn’t look all that special compared with the Langley, Falls Church, and Oakton renovations. The new Western High School will be a notch higher with the pool and decorative  outdoor fountains. [/quote]

Ah, but if they send those Coates and McNair kids there you’ll get a daily reminder it’s just a public school in a shinier-than-average building.  Can access be restricted to Floris, Fox Mill, and Crossfield students?  [/quote]
