Best Elem. Schools near FFX and Burke

[Anonymous]

If you are moving for middle schools, you want Irving.

Of those areas, West Springfield would be the least convenient for the Vienna Metro and VRE. Areas feeding into Robinson, Woodson, Lake Braddock, and Jackson/Oakton would be closer to those public transportation options. All are generally good schools.

So ignorant and gross.

Is this an inaccurate statement?

Yeah. It is.

How so? Numbers don't lie.

Not true. West Springfield HS is very close to the Rolling Rd. VRE.

Some "rate" lower, but it is driven largely by pockets of FARMS families. You will actually get lower class sizes at the Title I schools. Focus more on the long term and which middle/high school you'd be zoned for.

And what do you think the numbers say? That OP will be "fine" only if he/she avoids being around too many poor and/or brown kids?

I would look at the neighborhoods between little river and Braddock. It will put you equal distance between Burke bee and Vienna metro. Wakefield forest and Canterbury woods are both highly rated. Little Run and Olde Creel are small with specialized programs that bring down there overall rating to 6 or 7 but are still nice schools with great staff.

Yes, it may sound horrible but those same people screaming racist also wouldn't put their children at a 80% FARMS (free and reduced meals service) school. It has nothing to do with race but everything to do with values. Family values and beliefs vary within cultures and school communities.

Overconcentration of poverty doesn't help anyone...

It sounds horrible because it is horrible. Poor and/or brown families don't value education??? Yes, the poor deserve to be poor because of their poor values and you are so much better off only because of your "values". A small minded, common mind set. I hope I don't know you in person.
