[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think a lot of Oakton parents are going to be disappointed when their favorite teachers move to Western. There is a lot of interest.[/quote]

Doubt it. Not a Crossfield or Oakton parent, but it's clear that rankings and ratings matter to them. Those teachers aren't going to change that.[/quote]

It's not about rankings/rating. It's about (1) SES (2) Race (3) Sports, not necessarily in that order. The ringleader is obsessed with her child's sports prospects. Ringleader is pretty disliked amongst other sports parents.[/quote]

Skyview won't have VHSL sports for 2 years because they don't have the necessary fields. Kids will go back to their original school for sports. Not sure why they have an athletic director?[/quote]

They do need to start preparing. Also they said one year, not two.[/quote]

They definitely won’t have VHSL sports next year and they may or may not have them in 2027-28.  [/quote]

Why can't they have all of the other sports besides football?

Aren't there all the smaller fields and indoor facilities already in place?

And an adjacent county or middle school field large enough to practice football?

They could have all their football games as away games.[/quote]

VHSL won’t let them have some sports and then send kids to other schools for the sports they don’t have. It is ll or nothing. They wouldn’t have enough kids even with 1,000 kids to have all the sports. They are hoping to get to 1,500 kids in year 2 so that they have the kids for all the sports.

Instead of having some sports but not all, they are going the route to allow kids to participate in all sports even if it is at a different school for a year, maybe two. There is no easy answer to this one. [/quote]

It doesn’t sound like they’ll have anywhere close to 500 sophomores this fall, so they probably won’t have 1500 kids in 2027-28.  This is a very slow ramp-up. [/quote]
