True. But, others do. Just look at RIO. They are almost at Langley level in their elitism.
What's Rio?
Rooted in Oakton, a group trying to keep Crossfield ES at Oakton and not Western. They have a website and everything.
It's a small group of Crossfield AAP and sports moms who have a lot of time on their hands and have recruited their Oakton, Navy and Waples Mill friends to join a FB group and sign a petition to make it look like a huge portion of the Crossfield community supports staying at Oakton. Look in the FB group - I don't recognize 75% of the names.
Imagine these are SAHMs too who have nothing better to do.
Bingo! And run the PTO to boot.

They're exploring options for Hagel Circle.
It’s extra hilarious that they didn’t even hold this meeting at Halley, where Hagel Circle attends now. Do those families even have any idea that they’re slated to move?
Come on.
You jnow those poor Hagel Circle kids should never have been bussed 4 elementary schools away, crossing I95, all the way to Halley.
Are you aware that they are passed pass the same I95 crossing to get to south county middle and high school… why is this not an issue?
If you can't see or understand the different needs, abilities and stamina between a 6 year old and a teenager, I don't know if anyone can answer your question.
What an ignorant response… obviously you have no answer
You’re probably one of those Gunston parents that despise Hagel Circle and whined about having them there. What a shame. You can have that school. Sucks anyways
I’m a different type of Gunston parent willing to accept them.
I live in the hayfield part of Gunston and want to move to SoCo.
Know Lorton station parents who want that move too.

Hey, if the recruiters make good charcuterie boards and buy good wine, I’d probably join too 😂.Anonymous wrote:Anonymous wrote:Anonymous wrote:Anonymous wrote:Anonymous wrote:Chantilly is just as good as Oakton. No one zoned to Chantilly "perceives" Chantilly as less-than Oakton.

There is no Oakton middle school, you mean Carson. Carson kids go to Oakton, Chantilly, South Lakes, and Westfield. I don't know of any other middle school that feeds to four (maybe soon 5) high schools.
Oakton families had no problem turning Thoreau into a middle school that splits to three high schools because they didn’t like being assigned to a “lesser” middle school that only split to two high schools.
