If boundaries change, do kids switch schools the next year or do they continue at their current school until the terminal year for that school?

+1 boundary tinkering between schools of similar SES at most.
They really can’t do much until/unless the mythical Western HS is built. And since they haven’t even started the process, I’d say the oldest kids currently enrolled who could be affected by the boundary changes of a hypothetical new western HS would be, like, current 3rd or 4th graders.

The process that they hurriedly stopped in 2019 is now in motion, again.
And with a Superintendent who seems to have more determination than Brabrand coming out of a much more lefty region of the country.
The board still needs to vote on it and there will never be the political will

Nothing will change. Way too difficult. And the school board is definitely not working in this now. They are spending half their meetings talking about the proclamations they read at their meetings.

The reason I would care is because our house is closest to our currently zoned schools. I don't want to get moved to a school that is FARTHER from my house. That said - I doubt anything will change for my house.

If it’s in motion again, it’s all very, very slow motion.
I’d be more concerned with how little progress they are making to come up with a new renovation queue than with the fact that they might eventually update the boundary policy.

Not a chance. By the time it would be announced and implementation would start, the governor's race would be on the ballot. I don't think the state party wants to watch NOVA school boards hand the republicans statewide offices two cycles in a row

Look at the minutes and see.
There’s nothing in those FPAC minutes to suggest major boundary changes are coming.

There will be no boundary change. And there will never be a mythical "western HS."

This must be the reimagined boundary policy. Mrs Reid favorite line let’s reimagine something blah blah The professional consultant they hired during COVID stated that moving and hiding poverty would be harmful to the children. Each school should evaluated programs that give the children equal opportunities and shift those resources were needed. I wished Fairfax would do what is just and reasonable instead of their reimagined pet projects. GET BACK TO EDUCATION

The board stopped working on plans for countywide boundary changes before the last election but they are back at it.
Looks like the current CIP lists Herndon’s capacity at 2,744 students though the previous post renovation number in the last CIP was 2500.
That makes current usage at 84% rather than the previous 94%.
This is just one example of probable messing with the numbers to justify a fruit basket turnover across the county.
Look at the minutes from the recent FCAP meeting, they discussed the new superintendent’s interest in a boundary change as well as the importance of boundary policy.
Remember what they wanted to do in 2019?
