Telling people not to talk about your neighborhood's bribery is a sure fire way to keep the conversation front and center.
+1. The situation with Walney Oaks is very suspect. Who pulled strings for that neighborhood?
I think they will move the rest of Brookfield back to try and 'cover the bribery tracks'--its sooo obvious right now looking at the map that this wealthy neighborhood got special treatment.

Since FCPS has decided to throw Westfield under the bus, all of Brookfield will be moved back to Chantilly and Westfield will be left with 1700 students. The BRES apartment building Seema personally arranged to have moved out of Centreville HS will stay moved out, as that was obviously a personal favor done for her.
The Oak Hill walkers will be moved to stay with the rest of Oak Hill.
Fox Mill will be at Skyview.
agree that all these are likely

Though you are correct on most points, Carson is the official middle school assigned to the Oakton pyramid.
I've never seen that listed anywhere.
Look on the FCPS pyramid locator page.
That would be strange to me, I think Carson sends more kids to Westfield then Oakton right now.

This will be another messed up boundary because they won’t allow the professionals the freedom to work properly. Too many people just trying to fight for what they want rather than the greater good.
Seriously?
Carson is going to feed Skyview. The ESs are right by Skyview, the boundary is going to make sense and will be reasonably compact. The pyramid they are building makes total sense. And everyone has been discussing it since the school was purchased. It has been 9 months and a few days before the last map is going to be published she asks that question?
The issue is really what is Oakton’s MS because it had been Carson. Oakton’s boundaries make 0 sense but the school board doesn’t want to address that.
They don’t need to make many adjustments to the ES boundaries in the Skyview area. Apparently Floris is getting crowded but Fox Mill has space and is on the boundary with Floris, so they could move kids from the local neighborhood from Floris into Fox Mill. Crossfield has space if there are schools that are crowded in the area.
+1. Also, I don't understand why changing elementary schools would be helpful to Meren. The proposal to move some of Floris into Fox Mill only strengthens the argument that Fox Mill should be assigned to Skyview. Pretending that plan isn't on the table benefits Meren.

Logically of course, but FCPS has historically listed Carson as Oakton’s MS because the boundaries used to extend even further west than they do now. Thoreau and Franklin both have Oakton bound students. With the majority being at Franklin even without Crossfield, that MS will likely be recognized as Oakton’s MS.

FWIW, I would not call Carson as "Oakton's MS." Carson is currently split 3-4 ways.
Franklin also feeds Oakton.
And, doesn't Jackson also feed Oakton?
You are not going to have a pyramid system with the way the schools are located. If Meren is concerned about a pyramid system, then she should have sent Fox Mill to Hughes and kicked out AAP.
Meren is late to the party even though she has had the invitation for a year.
