[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So nothing to reduce the insane overcrowding at Chantilly. Nice. Why does that school get ignored. My kid is graduating, he can’t even move in the hallways. [/quote]

They are spending over $200 million on Western to relieve overcrowding at Chantilly.  [/quote]

but, Reid thinks the "opt in" option will solve it.

The logical solution was to have determined the new boundaries by now.  This just defies common sense.  I just don't get her thinking.[/quote]

The thinking was:

“I want to open this school this fall but it still needs work and only has space for 1000 students, so it will be a soft opening where families can opt in, understanding we’ll only have two grades, aren’t promising transportation, and won’t have VHSL sports.

Maybe it won’t relieve overcrowding too much at first, depending on who opts in, but if we waited to open the school another year or two we wouldn’t be providing overcrowding relief until then, either.

In a couple of years, we’ll have firm boundaries and no more opting out for entering classes, except through the normal student transfer process.”[/quote]

This was the thinking, however they should have just made the Western boundary changes at the same time as all the rest. Waiting until June is absurd.[/quote]
