I thought it was supposed to have just the new HS. I think the question is how many areas will be moved around to fill in the HS’s that will likely be losing kids to KAA (mostly Chantilly and Westfield).

No — everybody was too busy complaining on DCUM.

Lees Corner's boundaries are basically adjacent to Chantilly.

It's basically across the street (50) from Chantilly. Closest elementary school except Greenbriar West. Less than one mile.

If you want to play the who is closer game, it'd be Rocky Run that is closer than Franklin. Therefore, Lees Corner via Franklin is more likely to be moved out of Chantilly than anyone else after Oak Hill. I don't think that would happen, maybe a portion of kids who could walk to Chantilly are rezoned to Rocky Run themselves given under enrollment there, if anything.

Franklin MS is within Lees Corner's boundaries, that is why Lees Corner kids go there. Anyway, I am looking at the maps and believe that Brookfield and Navy are also both split feeders to Franklin MS then Chantilly HS. It's not just Lees Corner and Oak Hill.

Moving the Rolling Valley Lewis students to WSHS and moving other neighborhoods out of WSHS to make room for the Lewis kids has been the Springfield representative's biggest rezoning priority since FCPS started revising policy 8130.

So who is it? Which family supported Anderson or is close to Anderson’s family if this is the case?

We were told that she was advocating for this group because some groups can’t organize and spend time advocating like our group. It was a very surprising statement, because we are also households of busy working parents, who are federal workers, military, teachers, etc. We don’t have any more resources than this RVES pocket.

So, equity??

That doesn't make sense.

That RV neighborhood is just as wealthy as the rest of 22152 and has a similar demographic as the rest of WSHS.

DP. Whenever the school board hears that a community doesn’t want something, they immediately pretend that there is some other silent community who wants the opposite. That way, they can justify screwing over the first community.

For the most part, they just keep revising the proposals to reflect the last group of noisy parents who chewed their ear off. Not sure the end result will be anything like what they claimed they wanted to accomplish.

Comprehensive boundary review is a shitty game of musical chairs.

Every boundary review is musical chairs because every boundary review shifts seats in a zero sum environment.

That's an odd statement. How is it a zero sum environment when they get money every few years for capital projects and boundary changes can be one-way? It's not like they move kids out of every school they move kids into.

School A loses 100 kids.

School B receives the 100 kids.

-100 from school A

+

+100 to school B

=

0

Or School L loses 20 kids

+

School WS gains 80 kids

= + 60 kids

Or

School JM loses 90 kids

+

School GCM gains 60 kids

= - 30 kids

The kids don’t magically cease to exist with a boundary change. They go to a different school.

If you want to talk general patterns of population/enrollment shifting, that’s a different point all together.

DP. I know families who have ceased to exist in Fairfax county schools because of the boundary review.

Imagine uprooting your family because your kids have the slightest chance of having to go to school with poor kids. Amazing.

Imagine sending your child to another school based on IB/AP because of lack of opportunity for advanced instruction.

Imagine how sending your high achieving kids to a high school will lead to it being a better school and probably drive the need for more advanced classes.

🤣. Old enough to remember when you said yesterday that all the UMC could leave and the schools would be just fine. You gotta get your story straight, rather than changing it every day in a feeble attempt to push your equity agenda.

Half of Floris, all of Fox Mill. They didn't need Floris for their little social reengineering project, as expected, with the boost, the Reston UMC kids ended up staying at Hughes/South Lakes rather than disappearing into the ether.

OMG are you still complaining about boundary changes that happened 18 years ago? Kids have been born and graduated from high school since that happened.

Some of Lee's Corner is walking distance to Franklin.

Moving Oak Hill out of Chantilly will likely be enough. I doubt seriously they would move Lee's Corner out. Some of those that go to Lee's Corner should really go to Brookfield.
