[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just wanted to say I don’t think because S Arlington is not always represented on this website that people don’t care. My S Arlington neighborhood is filled with MC and IMC. We care. Yes we are busy but don’t let haters tell you we must not care about are kids if we don’t live in N Arlington. In fact, I care about my kids and myself that’s why we chose S Arlington got the down to earth vibe and commute. We are zoned Henry Jefferson/ Fleet Jefferson. I do admit to a slight concern about high school..., but in the 8 years I’ve lived on he South side our neighborhood has changed a lot. Do I am waiting to see on high school. I also think the bds enrollment numbers are way off and 2020/21 is going to be a crazy year for kindergarten [/quote]

No one thinks anything negative about Henry. It’s on par with the performance of the north Arlington Schools. These discussions are really about Randolph, Barcroft, Drew, and Carlin Springs.[/quote]

Carlin Springs is doing fairly well in terms of test scores, relative to the other schools. I'd add Abingdon to the list of schools to watch. They've been on an upward trajectory, but the S. Frederick Street project may affect that. It's probably going to bring hundreds more kids living in poverty into the system. [/quote]

Carlin Springs has those kids in school 6 days a week, after school, and sometimes during the summer. That’s what it takes with those challenges to get the performance up, and it’s really only middling.

They also have reading tutors from middle school once a week after school.
