[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sandy tried to move a West Springfield neighborhood out that only had 18 sixth graders. I don't care if it's not a huge problem, but even if they found 18 kids who were illegally using a WSHS address it would mean not kicking out kids you rightly should be. [/quote]

Supposedly, that Rolling Valley SPA 8922 that attends Lewis has around a half dozen kids per grade.

That is around 1/3 of the student transfers into WSHS.  And surely they can find an equal number of out of bound residency fraud cases if they did a residency check.

If the Springfield rep truly wants to make room at WSHS for SPA 8922 Rolling avalley, then she should start with a full residency check, and enforce FCPS transfer policy.

At the last in person BRAC meeting, it was stated that the transfers into WSHS are mostly students from surtounding schools taking German.  Per FCPS own policy, those students are not allowed to transfer into closed WSHS for German.  They are required to go to the next closest school with a German program.

Close WSHS to transfers.  Not just "closed but fcps will give you a waiver" but actually closed.[/quote]

Put those German classes at LBSS. They have more space. No one should be transferring into WSHS for German. [/quote]
