[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Isn't the eastern side of Crossfield’s boundary is actually quite far from the new school?

Crossfield is probably the farthest of all the elementary schools under consideration from KAA.

The eastern side of Crossfield goes to Hughes/South Lakes.

That's only a small pocket and even that pocket would feed into KAA under Options C and D.  There are also a number of Crossfield kids east of Lawyers Road attending Carson and Oakton.  In fact, the entire Crossfield boundary sits east of Fairfax County Parkway.

I think pro Oakton families should use the fact Crossfield is the farthest of all the elementary schools under consideration.  That would be a stronger argument than “rooted in Oakton.”

There are STILL five high schools now that are closer to our homes than Oakton. FIVE.[/quote]

This is what I keep coming back to when I think about all this. Like something isn’t right here. At least the Great Falls people can argue that there’s only one other high school closer to them. How did we end up in this situation? I really wish we were zoned for Chantilly.[/quote]

SAME. Now that high school is in sight for my kids and we are shuttling them back and forth to everything all the time, I really wish we'd chosen a house zoned to a closer high school. I mean, FFS, all of my kids' sports and other activities are in the direction of Chantilly or KAA. It's going to be a real pain in the butt getting a high schooler to and from Oakton and then to Chantilly for activities. I can't believe people do this all the time and want it to continue, LOL![/quote]

If your house search was anything like ours, you had like four hours after looking at the house to decide if you wanted to put in an offer. We don’t have the luxury of weighing all these pros and cons when a home comes up for sale. [/quote]
