[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It will provide an important data point in the decision making.  For example, it's going to be a useful data point in deciding moving crossfield or foxmil.  That data won't affect Oakhill.
[quote=Anonymous]The boundary decisions are not being made solely on opt-in numbers. That's DCUM speculation. [/quote][/quote]

Gee.  Why didn't they do the boundary study based on those who want to Opt-in to any school?

I do not understand this process at all.

Reid is clueless.

With how few changes they made in the grand scheme it sort of feels like that’s what they did. [/quote]

I'd be very surprised if Meren supports South Lakes losing Fox Mill.  [/quote]

Meren doesn’t know the difference between Fox Mill and Fox Mill Woods.

I’d love to lose Meren. [/quote]

If Reid’s proposal sends Fox Mill to Skyview the other board members will pass it. [/quote]
Crossfield to Skyview makes so much more sense that I don't think even one board member would object if that were Reid's proposal.[/quote]

What I find crazy is how Navy families are so involved in this. They are worried that if Crossfield is moved to a closer school, that they will be moved to Fairfax, which is closer to them. [/quote]False, Chantilly is closest to Navy, not Fairfax, and Waples mill is closest to Oakton.

Make sure to calculate driving time before making an erroneous post![/quote]

PP said "closer" not "closest."

Chantilly is full.  Navy kids were taken out of Chantilly some years ago because of the overcrowding.  
But, I am not sure that Fairfax is closer than Oakton to the neighborhoods.[/quote]

Navy kids weren't taken out of Chantilly because of overcrowding.  Oakton kids at Fox Mill were moved to South Lakes to bolster the enrollment at South Lakes, and then the School Board member from Providence who lived in the Oakton district wanted other kids moved into Oakton to avoid reducing its enrollment.  He was worried Oakton teams would suffer with a lower enrollment.  Navy fit the bill, and Kathy Smith went along with it.  [/quote]
