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.
IKEA will open its new Chantilly store at the site of the former Dulles Expo Center on June 18, the company announced yesterday.
The 107,000 square-foot space at 4320 Chantilly Shopping Center Drive is the Swedish furniture company’s first full-sized store in Fairfax County and its third in Virginia.
When the owners of the Dulles Expo Center announced last fall that the building would be turned into an IKEA, the husband-and-wife team that hosts the DMV Chocolate & Coffee Festival had to move quickly to find a new venue for 2026 — one capable of hosting over 200 small businesses and artisans, and thousands of visitors.
Now, co-founders John and Lindsay Hill have not only found a new venue to keep the festival running in its fifth anniversary year. They’re also expanding to a second location.
