[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP kept saying Fox Mill should leave SLHS for KAA, and making fun of crossdield os sending them to SLHS.

This is not attack? What you call this, Fox Mill? [/quote]

Which PP made fun of sending Crossfield to SLHS?

The closest posting was:

[i] Academy-wise, the best Western HS could do is perform close to Chantilly. I don't see Western HS coming out of the gate (next 10 years) and getting even close to Oakton level. There is no incentive for Oakton people to leave an excellent school and go to an unknown.

I see there are gains from quality of education for Fox Mills moving to Western HS. Let's go Option B. [/i]

I don’t see any attack or mockery.

I am not Fox Mill or Crossfield.  But, I remember when Fox Mill was sent from Oakton to South Lakes.  So, I don't see why Crossfield could not be sent from Oakton to KAA.  The reasons are the same:  the distance.  Fox Mill is in Hunter Mill and that is likely why it was sent to South Lakes rather than Crossfiedl.  It is also closer to South Lakes.

But, there is a precedent for moving western Fairfax students out of Oakton because of the distance.  That is a fact.[/quote]

Some homes from the part of Vienna close to Reston also got moved to SLHS at that time. I didn't have kids yet, but I remember hearing from people I knew in Reston that it was contentious. Their kids were already zoned to SLHS and they were shaking their head at how the Vienna people were freaking out. That part of Vienna is much closer to SLHS than Madison.

These people's kids are now highly successful adults, because they had good role models in their parents in terms of hard working and placing an importance on education. That matters a lot more than the school. [/quote]
