The fact it would add some SES diversity to Langley is a bonus, doesn't need to be the driving reason. The only issue I can foresee is the split-feeder from MS and not sure if the capacity issues there can be similarly resolved as easily, but that seems secondary.

Marshall's enrollment is up 38 kids since the school year began. McLean is up 27 kids. Langley's enrollment hasn't increased at all from September 2021 to April 2022.

If they don't reassign this new housing project off Spring Hill Road to under-enrolled Langley, Jason Miyares should open an investigation into the School Board's neglect of duty.

If nothing happened when millions were spent expanded West Potomac even though Mt. Vernon had space, I doubt the Langley boundary will warrant much attention.

Besides, 46 has promise us food shortages and inflation shows no sign of stopping. I’ll bet that the percentage of Langley-boundaried children that goes to private school decreases next year and the year after. A bad economy is great for public school enrollment.

I doubt the private school enrollment decreases, but I doubt the school board will be too interested in dealing with anymore boundary adjustments in that area for a while. Your example of west Potomac was spot on.

You could argue it’s an opportunity for the SB members to try and redeem themselves. Of course, it may be too late for some, given how little support they have left.

In that case these stupid MFs should start planning for an addition at Marshall now.

Well, duh. The issue is whether they are just going to sit back passively and let Marshall get more overcrowded or use some of the vacant capacity at Langley. But maybe they don’t lift a finger, which would be yet another reason to replace the current School Board.

Look at everywhere else in the county. Lots of overcrowded schools. (West Potomac/mount vernon) Of course they are just going to sit back and do nothing. This is not new behavior. What would be new for any school board would be for them to be proactive.

You’re disgusting.

How is this disgusting? We already know busing is counterproductive. For any demographic.

I agree busing long distances is disgusting.

So you agree that Great Falls should go to Herndon.
