This story is part of WTOP’s 2026 Back to School coverage. Nearly 1,700 Fairfax County, Virginia, students will attend a different school this fall as a result of the district’s first comprehensive boundary review in decades. The plan approved by the Fairfax County School Board in January called for 1,697 students to be reassigned to schools other than those they attended during the 2025-26 school year. Some affected students could opt to remain at their previous school, depending on the grade they’re entering this academic year, according to the school division’s FAQ page.
