[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Isn’t the curriculum supposed to be the same across FCPS. Wondering if it is worth emptying out our savings to buy a $2m house in McLean for better schools.[/quote] The curriculum is not the same across FCPS. There is very little standardization in Fairfax. There are county and state standards that are the same. How they are taught changes from school to school and teacher to teacher. Also each child is ready for lessons on those standards at different times.[/quote] This. [/quote] I agree as well. We moved from Centreville to McLean and the kids immediately felt additional school pressure, with more demanding homework and shorter due dates. It was pretty dramatic. [/quote]
