[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP Here. Thank you to all who gave me their thoughts. It has helped ease anxiety.

I think what I am uncomfortable is a system that physically separates AAP and non-AAP for many reasons...and in the case of KGES a third separation where those who got into language immersion get physically separated.

I don't know if Arlington or Falls Church City place AAP kids in the same classes as general kids but I think that is what I would prefer as a parent. There seems something unhealthy to both the AAP kids and non-AAP kids by physically removing them from each other a la Dr Seuss's Sneetches.

At the same time I also think it will be fine and maybe I should worry about international move issues; I just feel like Fairfax County has indirectly opened a channel that allows aggressive parenting to payoff; and that worries me but to think that doesn't exist in FCC or Arlington is naive also.

Kg is a good school, Longfellow Is a hard school for kids that struggle. Some people put their kids in private school if the are weak academically or socially just to avoid Longfellow, then return to Mclean. Do some research on Longfellow, but KG and mclean h s are great schools.[/quote]
