[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There’s not a single member of the current School Board with an ounce of courage.  They pick soft targets (Asian immigrants hoping their kids will get into TJ) but they’d never take on vocal parents like the white parents at Langley or West Springfield. [/quote]

Why do you keep dragging West Springfield into your discussion about overenrolled schools when WSHS is around the [b]average enrollment capacity of the majority of fcps high schools[/b]?  Why do you call WS a "white" school when it is majority minority with one of the highest percentages of African American students in all of FCPS?

It is such a bizarre fixation to have this strange focus on one school that is not over enrolled and has one of the most compact boundaries in the county.  It is almost as if you are trolling.[/quote]

What does the "average enrollment capacity of the majority" of schools mean? Like you exclude a bunch of schools and then say West Springfield is then about average?

In any event, West Springfield (2650) has the fifth largest HS enrollment in the county this year, behind only Chantilly (2917), Lake Braddock (2896), West Potomac (2725), and Oakton (2679).  Lewis, with which WS shares a large border, has the smallest enrollment (1685).  Does anyone think a school with 1685 kids can offer the same classes or the same number of sessions of classes as one with 2650 kids?
