[quote=Anonymous]McNair/Coates parents have got to stop asking Floris/Oak Hill/Fox Mill parents to join them in Hutchison. We aren’t some prized commodity for the special interest of keeping Hutchison HS academically competitive to magically fix the demographics. They continue to advance invalid talking points that simply are illogical.

1). They do instigate valid proximity concerns that Forestville kids that are only 2 miles away Herndon HS go there instead of Langley.  But turn the other cheek and demand taking Oak Hill ES kids 6 miles away instead of Southern Clearview/Herndon ES kids just across the street. Hypocritical. 
2). Promote false claims that FCPS won’t allow ~60 percent or so FARMS high schools when there are FIVE already in FCPS, namely Mount Vernon, Annadale, Falls Church, Lewis, justice. This is 20 percent of FCPS high schools, and represents intentional actions by the Board of Supervisors/School Board to do so. 
3). Call us UMC residents in Oak Hill racist/classist. The Fox Mill/Floris kids are still going to a pretty high FARMS South Lakes and that number would only increase when the new housing projects get completed. About 35 percent black/hispanic as well. In fact the selfish ones are you all who think you get to dictate which school “fails”. Remove Fox Mill/Floris from South Lakes, it falls in the same situation Hutchison will be in. There are too many poors and too few advantaged kids to satisfy everyone in this region of Western Fairfax,

To this end there has been an exceptional amount of wishcasting by such individuals that more than anything seem rooted in their own insecurities and projections than the Oak Hill area kids. [/quote]
