My kids won't be affected by the new school at all, but I'm still happy to see FCPS do something to prevent the slow steady march toward 3000+ student mega schools. 2500 is probably too big. The feeling of a true school community is lost the bigger it gets. These schools are larger than many small towns in Virginia.

Um, no, we are actually zoned to Chantilly, which is a fantastic high school. I'd prefer my kids go there, but our neighborhood is much closer to Skyview, so it won't happen.

Try again.
