[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's also the case that the Langley HS area is the driving force for the potential 2024 push to incorporate McLean as a city... but that the McLean HS area is more likely to be supportive primarily driven by this single issue of the ongoing neglect of McLean's crowding situation. The sooner they redress it, the less supportive the McLean HS folks likely will be of the push for incorporation, and given it's a pretty big hill to climb already that likely would really take the wind out of this initiative's sails (sorry for mixing metaphors)... so I could see FCPS also recognizing the strategic importance of addressing this boundary issue sooner than later as a way of nipping the push for incorporation in the bud, because that's something they REALLY want to avoid.[/quote]

If FCPS just moves kids (in particular, exclusively from single-family neighborhoods, as contemplated under Options 1 and 2) to Langley, and does nothing to commit to a permanent addition at McLean, there will be more support for separation by 2024 because the McLean families will have watched McLean HS decline over the next several years compared to Langley and a number of other NoVa high schools.  You'll have some families in Vienna happy that they got the "upgrade" to Langley, and a bunch more pissed people in McLean when they realize that FCPS has let MHS deteriorate.
