[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are part of the Sangster split feeder and we absolutely want to stay WS. And the majority of our small neighborhood does too. I understand eliminating split feeders is what some schools want. But our neighbors are all very pro staying with what we have and are extremely disappointed in the change. So I am not sure who the PP is talking to who has been wanting the split gone for “a decade” [/quote] You’re walking distance to Sangster. You can say you feel more emotionally connected to WSHS all you want but physically, you’re closer to Sangster. At least LBSS is as good if not better than WSHS. Daventry and other neighborhoods could be looking at going to Lewis. You’re really not in a good place to argue this one. [/quote] All of this. The Lake Braddock school busses from Sangster go [i]through[/i] that neighborhood. Half of the neighborhood walkable to Sangster along Retriever, Sloop, etc go to Lake Braddock. Lake Braddock busses stop in your Sangster neighborhood along Gamelord, Reservation and Huntsman to pick up all the 7th and 8th grade AAP students heading to Sangster. The Sangster community is already robustly entertwined with Lake Braddock, and LB/WSHS communities overlap everywhere. It is not like these kids are getting ripped from their communities and sent to a school where they have no connections. Lake Braddock is as much if not more a part of their community as Irving and WSHS. The Sangster families off Groveland getting sent to SoCo, and the Silverbrook families getting sent from SoCo to Lake Braddock are being ripped from their communities. But not any school getting sent from WSHS to LB, and espdcially not the Sangster neighborhood. LBSS and WSHS are a community together. Sangster is already part of the LB community [/quote]
