[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I must say, I'm wondering if some of the most vicious pro-rezoning people (only where other people's kids are concerned, of course) are now finding themselves in an unsavory position - either potential rezoning to a less desirable school or not being zoned to the new and more desirable one.

It's fun to pop my popcorn and watch karma come back around.[/quote]

Is the new HS really “less desirable?” It’s a nice, brand new building filled with the kids who are already at Carson (most likely). And doesn’t come with a long commute to Oakton if you’re in that situation. [/quote]
I think the new HS in this scenario is the new and desirable one and the less desirable school is potentially shifting Westfield —> Herndon or Chantilly —> Westfield or Oakton —> SLHS. Crossfield, especially, can’t argue they need a shorter/safer commute that KAA provides, but then reject SLHS, which would offer similar relief. Because of KAAs capacity limitations, this is going to be a ripple effect where neighborhoods might end up at a closer school, but not the brand new shiny new school n[/quote]

But was Crossfield slated for redistricting to SLHS before FCPS bid on KAA? If they weren’t, I don’t see any reason why they would be moved to SLHS after buying KAA. The only reason to move them now would be to fill KAA. [/quote]
