[quote=Anonymous]Yeah, Fairfax high school is pretty much the high school that is the most representative of the county overall. Its scores are right in the middle, its demographics are representative of the county, and its even located in the middle of the county. It's not considered one of the top performing schools in the county, but families are happy there. If a kid in 8th grade is smart enough, and has the resources, to go to a top college, it won't matter whether they attend Fairfax or Langley/McLean, etc. The boundaries are weird because all Fairfax City residents must attend Fairfax High school. The school was getting crowded so FCPS rezoned parts of the county just to the west of Fairfax City out of Fairfax HS (mostly to Woodson). It kept the areas just east of Centreville HS and Chantilly HS, which were always zoned for Fairfax HS. This just happened a couple years ago so boundaries are unlikely to change for a while.[/quote]
