[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It makes sense to build a new school near where the overcrowded schools are —Chantilly, centreville and Westfield. Somewhere near Dulles or down route 28. [/quote]

Is there a potential site? Where is the population growth expected over the next 20-30 years? Will population of students remain high in those areas or will families move closer to Tysons and metro?[/quote]

You do know that Metro is built out to Loudon?  Reston, Herndon, etrc.  Not open yet--delayed due to COVID, but it looks like most of the stations are finished.[/quote]

I am aware. I live out there. We can bike to metro. Our principals have shared with me in recent years info where the projected growth for families will be. Not much was said about Chantilly or Centreville, but maybe because that’s not where their focus was. [/quote]

Chantilly and Centreville are already over capacity. They just don’t complain as much. Reston/Herndon is expected to grow as fast as Tysons if not faster and that’s why they are going to build the school there.

I am not pro or anti Great Falls / McLean, but tired of why every discussion has to be about McLean and Great Falls. The Future “Western” High school is to provide the relief in that area.  It’s going to be like 26th high school in the county and why would you think it would magically solve the capacity problem in McLean?  If McLean needs relief, let them build another school in that area. Western Fairfax is already full and would need all the relief that the new school can provide. [/quote]
