[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wasn't moving kids to Lewis the entire catalyst of this 2 year boundary process?

Such waste and incompetence. [/quote]

It was one of them.  Not the only thing.

No one wants to go to Lewis because it is "bad" - but it is bad because no one goes to Lewis.  The BM move will happen because it is the logical choice to feed into Lewis.  They are not close to any high school and their logic that they are inside the beltway is not strong.  There are other communities that are more tied inside the beltway and still attend high schools outside the beltway.

As for placating Ricardy Anderson - that was a given.  Parklawn and Glasgow were supposed to be fixed several years ago and the Board told them to hold off for this ridiculousness.  The comprehensive boundary review happened and they did not even bother to address the issues at either school and they decided to add more kids to those schools.  Which shows that zero true consideration was given.[/quote]

The Bren Mar Park proposal has been tabled for at least five years so that’s five more years for Lewis to twist in the wind.

1500 kids wouldn’t be atypical in Loudoun, but it’s a good bit smaller than any other HS in FCPS.

Some of the proposals to “placate” Ricardy Anderson (she is one of the few members to really pay attention) make sense. Moving Parklawn kids to Columbia and Belvedere seems fine. It’s the new proposals to change MS or HS assignments for kids at Glasgow that shouldn’t be dropped on those neighborhoods at the last minute without further community engagement.  [/quote]
