The $ that is flowing in the eastern half of Loudoun County is hard to even explain. With the hyper-scale data center growth, the county is almost unrecognizable. Small college campuses would be jealous of this new school.

They have 6,5, and 4 schools. Most are 5 and 4. I believe Freedom may be the only 6.

Loudon schools built in the last two decades, prior to this newest design, all were planned for about 1800 students, if I recall correctly. Then the growth in Loudon exploded and the county planners finally realized they need to expand existing schools or build bigger ones. In the next 20 years I expect almost all Loudon schools, except some of the older legacy schools, will be Class 5 or Class 6.

I moved into Loudoun County in 1986. There were 4 high schools with the sports one being Park View. Transferred to Williamsburg in 1996. Huge changes. In 1986population was less than 100k. . From Sterling to Leesburg nothing but grass and one solitary building; Motorola. Unbelievable growth, Prices and traffic. Reason I relocated.
