[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I also feel like Woodson High School was placed in the wrong area of Fairfax County. Woodson High School should have been located halfway between Fairfax High School and Centreville High School, a little before the exclave of Fairfax High School's boundary begins. That way Fairfax High School would have students from the City of Fairfax and the eastern portion of Woodson's current boundary while Woodson would have students from the exclave of Fairfax High School's current boundary plus the western portion of Woodson's current boundary. Woodson High School as it is is too close to Fairfax High School while there is a significant distance between FHS and Chantilly High School or Centreville High School. If Woodson High School were in this new hypothetical location I think the boundaries would be better. [/quote]

You're going to need a big trailer to relocate Woodson!

But, yes, Madison, Oakton, Woodson, and Fairfax HS are too close to one another.  This skews the boundaries in central/western Fairfax.

Langley also is in an inconvenient location.  It would be better if it were near Great Falls Village, and not so close to the Potomac River and Arlington County.

It would also help if Robinson were further southwest of its current location.  [/quote]

Yes, Robinson being further southwest would be helpful. Or even just being further south. Because Robinson and Lake Braddock are both in a somewhat straight line next to each other. If instead Robinson was located further south, and you combined both districts then gave the Northern half to Lake Braddock and the Southern half to Robinson; I believe that should reduce students commute to school on average.
