[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is so stupid. None of these schools are overcrowded. There was supposed to be a boundary study in the Fall of 2020 to figure out how to alleviate overcrowding at Shrevewood (and it probably would have just sent one neighborhood of kids to Stenwood instead), but it was cancelled due to the Covid shutdown and Karl F'ing Frisch took advantage of that to propose the Dunn Loring School (which nobody asked for or wanted). Post-Covid, Shrevewood was no longer under capacity. Then, post AAP changes at the school, it became even LESS crowded. This new school is totally unnecessary. What a huge waste of money. [b]I'm sure that Western Fairfax County would prefer that you build them a new high school.[/b][/quote]

I'm not sure that Dunn Loring is necessary at this point, but let's be clear that the funding for Dunn Loring would be way less than is needed for a high school.  I encourage you to check out the latest CIP estimates.[/quote]

Those 10 elementary schools add up to 89% capacity utilization in the most recent CIP out year for SY28-29.  Timberlane is listed under Mclean instead o Falls Church.  Fairhill id Falls Church pyramid and the other 2 non Marshall are Madison CIP.  Frankly anything with those 10 or [b]Westbriar should have Colvin Run, Wolf Trap, and Springhill in the mix.

Then there is the 600k boundary consultant project so why is FCPS bothering with this nonsense?  [/b]  So what could go into Dunn Loring that is sensible?  You can;t review Regions since stuff like Marshall and Chantilly are in the same region.  No geographic sense.  But that region has Chantilly and Marshall so there are 2 major capacity/program problems.

Both have set bricks and mortar square footage, trailers, modulars.  And each has out of boundary student academies which use up how much square footage?  Those facts are not disclosed by FCPS so why not consider new square footage for instruction at Dunn Loring for academy courses?  Another optiion is to move rando immersion programs.  [/quote]
