[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For those interested, here's what the adjusted 2024-25 enrollments would look like at FCPS high schools based on Reid's county-wide proposals and the initial scenarios floated for Western (italics):

Lake Braddock 2950
West Springfield 2791
West Potomac 2606
Robinson 2484
Woodson 2418
[i]Westfield 2407 to 2472[/i]
Langley 2375
Fairfax 2334
Edison 2282
Hayfield 2277
Falls Church 2238
Herndon 2230
[i]Chantilly 2218 to 2215[/i]
McLean 2210
Madison 2209
Annandale 2186
[i]Oakton 2165 to 2601[/i]
Justice 2156
TJ 2111
South County 2091
Marshall 2066
[i]South Lakes 2002 to 2410
Centreville 1957[/i]
Mount Vernon 1893
[i][Western] 1726 to 2142[/i]
Lewis 1632[/quote]Western should have more.

FCPS’ options for that boundary were so disappointing.

Here’s what I would do.

[b]I would move 1005 students out of Westfield,[/b] 370 students out of South Lakes (excluding the 38 from Fox mill woods), the 351 Oak Hill students from Franklin Farm and Chantilly Highlands, and the 436 currently Oakton bound Westfield kids.

I would exclude the 7 kids off of Ashvale (that whole street is moving 12 kids to Lees Corner Anyway)

That final result is:

1005+370+436+351=2,162.

It’s 20 more than option C.

However to avoid a split feeder at Crossfield, 38 kids could move in from Fox Mill Woods from South Lakes to Western.

That final result is:

1005+408+436+351=2,200.

I like my option E with the 2,162 than my option F with the 2,200.[/quote]

Their proposals have about 250 kids shifting from CVHS to Westfield. Taking 1000 out of Westfield and only adding in 250 would leave Westfield with less than 2000 students. Given that school's demographics, that's not enough students to offer a critical. number of advanced classes.[/quote]The Western Maps actually show 362 Centreville HS students moving, and an additional 340 moving from Chantilly to Westfield, but those boundaries will be finalized in June.

Try referencing other proposals before you start correcting others, honey.

Maybe make your husband dinner before you come for me.[/quote]
