[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, but apparently our school board is living in Atlanta in the 1960s. [/quote] Why? Because they send some kids zoned for Oakton HS to one of the middle schools that is closest to their homes, when you'd like to send them to another middle school with lower FARMS? School assignments in the Oakton pyramid have always been an issue, but the primary reason is that there are a bunch of high schools (Madison/Oakton/Fairfax/Woodson) very close to one another, which leads to some funky boundaries, particularly when you take into account the fact that all students who live in the City of Fairfax are required by law to go to Fairfax HS and the School Board's informal policy (not legally required) to allow all students who live within the Town of Vienna to attend Madison. [/quote] Actually, for those of us living in Vienna and Oakton, Thoreau IS closer. [/quote]
