You can in Falls Church City but I want to say it was $17k when we looked into it.
You pick the school?
Have you looked at FCC? There’s only one school for each level. No you don’t get to pick.
Well, they want to go to a better school than FCPS, so why would they look at Falls Church City?
You do realize FCPS and FCC are completely different school systems. FCC is better than all 3 of the neighboring systems.
Yes I do and no it isn’t. Much like a private school, it’s successful because it’s small, rich and exclusive to families who have the means to make it successful, not because the schools are great.
I generally agree but did you know the #1 public elementary school in all of Virginia is Arlington Traditional, with a 30 percent FARMS rate? It’s closing the achievement gap and it’s a lottery school. So presumably all parents have the wherewithal to apply for the lottery, but that’s it. It’s better than the “rich” schools in North Arlington.
I have no idea what they are doing but I wish schools would try and duplicate it.
