Ashburn, Dulles Middle and High School Boundary Plans Adopted

Brambleton appears to be primary community that will be split between high schools; most kept whole.

The Loudoun County School Board voted 7-2 Tuesday night to adopt a slightly altered version of one of several boundary maps under consideration for Ashburn and Dulles North.

The final plan kept most communities together at one high school, with the exception of Brambleton, which will be divided at Ryan Road. School board members said the plan moved the fewest students of the plans under consideration.

Brambleton students living north of Ryan Road will continue to attend Briar Woods along with students from Broadlands, while those south of Ryan Road will attend the as-yet-unnamed high school planned in Loudoun Valley Estates.
