[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP again here, I noticed at Madison HS that once you exit the HS onto Maple, there is no traffic light. so if you want to turn left onto Maple, you have to wait until there is a gap big enough ... I can imagine in the morning and during pick up it might be really hard to do that . I am trying to think back to what the Oakton parking lot was.... there is 66 on the back side of it, and there is that road called Sutton or something... Also how much time do I need to register her for classes- is it three weeks or what is it, for the rental real estate papers and all that to process, for her to be registered for classes. Also will she need to be tested to see what level math to go in? She did Algebra last year in private school. [/quote] Traffic is bad at all schools. Although FWIW if you want to turn left on Maple from Madison, you cut over to Nutley St. (there’s a side road connecting it to James Madison Dr.) and turn at the light. Plus, there is no kiss and ride out front in the afternoon. It’s at the back entrance, although many parents forego that and just pick up on Nutley. I’d register as soon as you can prove residency. Many schools have very little wiggle room with classes and the more time you can provide for them to put together a schedule, the better. There is no math testing for HS. If your DD took a class that is equivalent to Algebra I last year, she’ll take Geometry next. [/quote] There isn't a smaller or more crowded high school parking lot in FCPS than Madison's. The school lost some of its parking when an addition was built a few years ago. [/quote]
