What is going on with GF and the new HS?
There have long been people in Great Falls who've tried to throw roadblocks in the way of a new, traditional HS in western Fairfax, but it's unlikely that has much to do with the recent delays in moving forward with a decision about the programming for the western HS or the boundaries for the new school. They've got to work through permitting and construction issues before a new public HS could open, even with only 9th and 10th graders, and the biggest complainers about the potential boundaries for the new school have been people now at Oakton, not people in GF.
They could open as is with 9 and 10. The school was built to hold that many kids and they can certainly adapt. Just look what they do at the overcrowded schools.
Great Falls thinks these kids are insurance for them. That has been clear ever since the purchase.
i think the problem with opening is they didn’t file the right permitting (2232?). besides a few vocal great falls residents on next door the rest of the town does not have an opinion either way on the western high school. it does not affect us.
+1. So sad that there is one poster here who posts negative posts about great falls at least a dozen times a day, even when it is not relevant.
I think she dated someone from Great falls and got dumped.
No other group actively organized against this school. But, you know that.
You mean that non-great falls group that wanted it to be a magnet? That’s literally the only one I know that organized anything. Others just questioned the lack of plan and cost.
But you know that.
And, you know who was the base of FairFacts. They wanted to stop the school. Period. A magnet is not the same as a school with boundaries.
But, hopefully, this is not over.
I don’t understand what you mean by “base of fairfacts”? I haven’t seen any position from fairfacts matters on the school, but I may have missed it.
fair facts matters has not spoken out against the school. the only posts i have seen have asked for transparency on the purchase (what is the plan for the school, what other capital projects are being deferred etc). fcps still doesn’t seem to know the plan months after they purchased it
THIS ^^
That is speaking out against the school. And, some of the people who screamed the most on Nextdoor were very much on FairFacts. One lives two miles from Herndon High School.

Nope.
Fairfacts wanted to stop countywide rezoning.
That is why they formed.
And, then they wanted to stop this school. That is a fact. They posted on Nextdoor frequently.
"They"? You mean one or two people? Maybe put away your tinfoil hat.

DP. No one wanted to "stop the school," you paranoid twit. Were people calling for transparency regarding how the school was purchased? Absolutely. That's a completely different matter. Get a hobby that doesn't involve smearing a community that has nothing to do with this school.

Exactly. I think it may be time to start reporting the posters who continue to trash a community that has nothing to do with them and is not involved in any of the western hs decision making.

Your narrative about GF is complete BS. There may have been a couple of loudmouths on NextDoor, but GF as a whole has no opinion on the western high school. It won't affect them. We understand that you have white-hot hatred for that area and can't stop obsessing over them, but trust - no one is coming for your high school.

Finally. They need to do the same thing with elementary AAP centers. At this point, the redundancy is embarrassingly wasteful.

Can someone please explain who in Great Falls is greasing palms? Why do they and their stupid Facebook group have so much influence on the board? Who paid whom?
They don't.
It is just some person on here who posts non stop on this page and has an irrational hatred for that area.
The rest of us throughout FFX deeply appreciate the work Fairfacts has done to keep the entire county informed.
