For anyone looking to buy a home in Springfield Virginia you will hear the term "school pyramid" used to describe the schools that feed into the four local high schools.
West Springfield, Robert E. Lee, South County Secondary School and Lake Braddock Secondary School are the four high schools at the top of the pyramid for children living in Springfield neighborhoods. There are multiple elementary schools that feed each of these schools. There are also elementary schools in the Burke Centre community that also feed to Lake Braddock and South County as well.
The following chart shows you the current schools assigned to each the top schools in the pyramid.

Lake Braddock and South County both have middle schools as part of their "campus" and do not have a separate feeder middle school. Detailed information about each of the schools can be found on the Fairfax County Schools site.
