[quote=Anonymous][b][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Right, but it is closer to western GF than Langley and that's the point. Instead of sectioning off a part of GF to Herndon and then relocating some McLean kids to Langley to help relieve overcrowding at McLean, they moved a couple of Spring Hill neighborhoods off Route 7 outside of Tysons from Longfellow - McLean to Cooper - Langley.

Take a look: https://www.fcps.edu/sites/default/files/media/pdf...High%20School%20Boundaries.pdf[/quote]

I don't live in that area and don't know the neighborhoods, but what is illogical about that?  Wasn't the purpose to relieve overcrowding at McLean?  I doubt that Langley is overcrowded now and, I think that Herndon must be close to capacity.  Why would you send more kids there?

Yep.  Exactly.  The purpose of the boundary change was to alleviate crowding at McLean by sending some McLean students to Langley.  Mission accomplished.  [b]And the neighborhoods that were moved are Colvin Run, not Spring Hill.[/b]  Now Colvin Run Elementary is no longer a split feeder - all students go to Langley.  Win-win.[/quote]

As a SH parent I can tell you that’s not accurate.  Maybe Colvin Run shares the change but SH kids come from a couple of those neighborhoods and are now zoned for Cooper-Langley.  [/quote]
