[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, I would be more concerned about whether your kid would even attend Lee. There is talk of closing the school and re-branding it as the regional IB center for a bunch of schools, fwiw.[/quote]

No, they're not going to do that.[/quote]

What I think they are considering is whether to turn Lee into an IB only school and turn Key into an IB MYP site exclusively.

I think it would result in shuffling feeders from West Springfield, South County, Hayfield, Lake Braddock (I think?), Annandale, and Edison, IIRC. Students at all of these schools could attend the proposed IB site with the thought that the loss of students to the new IB site would be off-set through boundary adjustments, redistricting, etc.

I don't know how probable this is, fwiw. But it's something to keep in mind around that part of the county.[/quote]

That's not going to happen.  OP doesn't need to think about that at all.[/quote]

I thought I read that they were looking into this around here recently. I don't know if I would be so certain, PP.[/quote]

Someone zoned for Lee keeps posting this idea as her pipe dream of what she believes should happen. Each time she posts this idea the shuffling becomes more complicated, with rezoning around a dozen elementary schools and having some elementary schools that high schools sit in the middle of jumping over other elementaries to make her numbers work.

Fcps is not going to rezone over 10,000 elementary students in one fell swoop based off the hopes of a dcumer.[/quote]

Wasn't it someone who worked in the Gatehouse who posted this theory? I thought they were claiming that FCPS was looking into this as a solution if Lee goes under state DOE oversight because  of failing test scores.[/quote]
