[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They'll need at least 3 new or expanded middle schools if they ever expect to move to 6-8 county wide to align with most of the rest of the country.[/quote]

No one wants to move to 6-8

Most of the middle schools are 7-8.

The 6-8 middle schools need to be eliminated so the middle schools are uniformly 7-8.[/quote]
You don't speak for everyone. 6-8 MS provides more opportunities for talented students, whether it be academically, musically, athletically (so weird FCPS doesn't have middle school sports like the rest of the state), etc.

All future CIP planning should emphasize building or expanding middle schools to handle 6-8 rather than adding any capacity to elementary schools.[/quote]

We have lived all over tge country.

Never have we seen school sponsored middle school sports beyond fun club type sports like running clubs.

The only exception is private schools.[/quote]

FCPS does not have sports for middle schools? That’s wild to me.

I grew up in PWCS and middle school was 6-8 and we had sports. Is that not the norm around NOVA anymore?

Not in FCPS middle schools and hasn't been since forever. At least the 1980s.[/quote]

It is the 3rd year of having Cross Country and Outdoor track as sports in FCPS for Middle School. Most schools have official unofficial volleyball and basketball teams and host 3-4 team tournaments.[/quote]
