So they want to increase the commuting time and distance for the McLean students who’d be moved (over 200 students)?  So much for transportation efficiency.

[/quote]
If it helps, the analysis is for the unseen “scenario 4”, so this must be for the Spring Hill kids going to Langley. If Timber Lane were still on the chopping block, McLean would also appear in the biggest transportation decrease section because Timber Lane to FCHS is much shorter than it is to McLean. So a speculative congrats to them![/quote]

I’m not sure I read it that way.  Weren’t they just parsing discrete boundary changes out of all those previously proposed back in June and flagging the ones with the most impact?  Timber Lane to FC vs. McLean might not have made that cut.

It’s confusing because they used the term “Scenario 4,” but they left in the change that would move Chantilly kids to Oakton, and there’s been a lot of feedback to rescind that proposal.  [/quote]

Where are you seeing specific schools?

There is a chart that lists a spattering of high schools with miles, and one map showing the distance of a single Sangster street not slater for rezoning and its driving path to Sangster.

But I am not seeing anything about the schools you mention.[/quote]
Slide 12[/quote]

So the schools listed on those slides are schools that students are being moved from?[/quote]

Yes. [/quote]

Are they?

Because WSHS had neighborhoods marked to move more than 3 miles away, and WSHS is not included on slide 12.

I think it just means, maybe, that the Hunt Valley kids don't get moved to Lewis. They may still get moved to South County, though. If they were moved to Lewis, they'd be on that slide.[/quote]

I think that's a misinterpretation of the exercise.  There was no proposal pending to move any Hunt Valley kids to Lewis, so I don't think they would have considered the impact of something they hadn't yet proposed.   [/quote]
