[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Listening to the 8/26 work session.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u11acsrpEFo
2:09 Reid convening a think tank.

2:10 Dunne - not just benefitting the western part of the county which has received a disproportionate share from FCPS and the county.   Building new schools due to growth and new construction is not a disproportionate share,

One might call IB $ spent a disproportionate share.
Dunne on no magnet school in the eastern part of the county- oops Bucknell with geographic limits. Edison Global STEM is east.  300 students.  Full time- give them a bus and call it a magnet. [b]Never forget the eastern part of FX is what benefitted when the KAA site was let go...[/b]

I just checked the schools within Mt Vernon District.  There are six high schools.  I assume that other districts also attend several of those schools:

Edison 2284
Hayfield: 2253
Lewis: 1622
Mt. Vernon: 1823
South County: 2087
West Potomac: 2606
The average is just over 2000

Sully *where KAA is located has only one high schoolL
Westfield at 2700

These schools-while located in Springfield district have mostly Sully District students:
Chantilly: 3000
Centreville: 2281

If you average those three schools, it is almost 2700 a school.

There are also quite a few Sully students at Oakton: Navy and Crossfield students.

There is still a lot of new construction in western Fairfax, but Sully is in great need for a new high school.

Maybe, Sully needs this more than Mt Vernon district right now.
