After four months of study and community meetings, Fairfax County Public Schools has unveiled Superintendent Michelle Reid’s initial recommendation for Skyview High School’s future attendance boundaries.
Under Reid’s proposal, which was publicly released last Thursday (July 2), the new public high school at 2949 Education Drive in Herndon would pull from students currently assigned to Westfield, Chantilly and South Lakes high schools, starting with the 2027-2028 school year.
The newest addition to Fairfax County Public Schools, Skyview High School in Herndon, is set to open this fall with over 700 ninth and tenth graders who opt in to attend the new school.
But the county school board is still deciding on a plan for full implementation of school boundaries — wherever those lines are drawn.

Holding American flags and homemade signs, the group outside ICE’s Washington Field Office at 14797 Murdock Street read aloud a list of people who had died in ICE custody, then sang “No están solos” (Spanish for “they are not alone”), followed by refrains of “none of us are free until all of us are free,” and “together we will abolish ICE.”
