[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]If it was used for an IB school you would bring in kids interested in that program and relieve schools that are over crowded or close to being over crowded. It would free up space in some existing HS. It would also allow all HS to have AP programs, which would reduce the number of student transfers.[/quote]

TERRIBLE location for one centralized IB school.  Do you want kids in Fort Hunt driving to Dulles airport every day?  That's pretty much the location.[/quote]

And TJ is well placed for everyone? Kids are bussed or drive long distances to get there. If the program has the demand then kids will come.[/quote]

Exactly. London kids to TJ is a haul but if they want to attend, they do.[/quote]

I guess it depends on how hard core the family is. We're zoned to Chantilly (5 minutes away) and I really think TJ is too far away no matter what my kid thinks. I would be open to the idea of this school if they made it into TJ 2 for the western half of the county. [/quote]

Not going to happen. [/quote]
