Save the existing Timber Lane/Longfellow/McLean School Boundaries!
On May 15, 2025, the Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS) Boundary Committee released three proposed boundary adjustments via their Scenario Explorer Tool. All three scenarios would shift students from a Timber Lane Elementary/Longfellow Middle School/McLean High School (MHS) Pyramid to a Timber Lane Elementary/Luther Jackson Middle School/Falls Church High School (FCHS) Pyramid.
These proposed changes would pull children from their established school communities, reduce equitable access to programs, force children to cross two highways to get to school, and overturn over 40+ years of community built on the existing boundaries.
The affected families do not support this boundary change.
