[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]School will need 200+ million dollars of renovations if it is made into a traditional HS. No way that gets done in less than a year. Part of the reason you are starting to hear about magnet options is that it would allow them to open the school on a small scale and fulfill their promise to open in 2026. I’ve heard from 4 people who have toured the school and all say if it’s made a traditional school they will need 2 full years to renovate and make additions to athletics facilities.[/quote] So, now it's athletic facilities? They will be starting with ninth and tenth and won't need a stadium immediately. They can provide for that. They have lots of outdoor facilities already: track, fields, etc. Until they get a stadium, they can schedule at one of the other schools. That has been done before. You don't think these kids deserve a traditional high school? Again, Centreville is full, Westfield is almost full and will be soon without relief, Chantilly is overflowing. South Lakes is full. Oakton and Herndon are both way too far.[/quote] Seems like they’d need some meaningful community outreach to determine whether people would embrace a school that has nicer facilities in some respects and decidedly inferior facilities (at least for now) in other respects. You apparently would, but there might be a lot of others who’ve been operating on the assumption KAA would have everything that a typical FCPS high school has, and more. [/quote] Funny you should mention community input. Robyn Lady suggested soliciting feedback with a requirement that the community members who respond need to visit the site first. It really seems to be a sincere concern of hers that the facilities are just not up to snuff for it to be a strictly community school.[/quote] That’s not at all what she said. Perhaps you would link the video with the time stamp posted of when you claim she said this. Or maybe you’re just another great falls troll?[/quote] God you’re dumb. Listen to the last ten minutes of the work session before spouting off like a lazy mash potato. It’s almost verbatim what she said.[/quote]
