    JUSTICE COMMUNITY WORKING GROUP

    On August 2, 2022, the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors approved the FCPS renovation/rezoning plan for Justice High School with contingencies, including Proffer 7. Proffer 7 requires Fairfax County Public Schools to convene a committee of Justice High School Pyramid community stakeholders to address solutions related to items including parking, safety, traffic, transportation, facilities, et al. The committee was convened by the Mason District School Board representative, Dr. Ricardy Anderson, and the Office of the Mason District Supervisor, then Penny Gross, in May of 2023. Since then, the Justice High School Pyramid Community Working Group has been meeting monthly to address and consider a broad range of options and whose work includes the development of a survey that will be distributed to students, staff, and community in the Spring of 2024.
