And AP Comparative Government. But Robinson has phased out most AP courses, so it's best to pupil place if you prefer AP to IB (as do most families in FCPS).

How do you determine this? I have looked at the boundaries but I can only find general HS boundary maps, not AP specific?
Also, if you are already at LB for 7 & 8, wouldn’t that be taken into consideration?
They don’t take that into consideration. They look at the closest school open to transfers. So, if You are zoned for Robinson. You could potentially end up at South County, Lake Braddock, Fairfax.
Not true. Our neighbor has kids at Woodson right now due to AP placement. Kings park west (laurel ridge). So, it really depends on where you live. Lake Braddock would NOT take the kids due to distance
That’s what I was saying. They don’t simply look at where you went to middle. It’s availability and class selection.
ETA that Woodson looks closer to transfers right now, so I didn’t list that
If Robinson is truly dropping the APs, a lot of kids are going to try and make the placement to surrounding schools.
