[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]09:43:  WASPy Vienna neighborhoods?  Must be a different part of Vienna than I live in[/quote]

I was just thinking the same thing. My kids class picture looks like a meeting of the UN and  I love it. We're a bi-racial family and the last thing I want is my kid to be in a classroom full of WASPs. I like the diversity that seems to live around the Marshall tier. I think being exposed to all types of social and economic differences can be a good thing.  We live in a large upscale TH by choice, so I don't know why people put THs down. We are not "backyard bbq" kind of people, so we don't feel the need to really have a SF. (We sold ours) We lived in a condo in the city and loved it, but needed room for the kids, I think a TH is a good compromise.

To stay on topic though, is Woodson its self really that great of a HS? I've driven past it and Frost and they seem a bit run down, as did the neighborhoods around them. I'm just wondering why all the hype- is it true or do some moms just want it to sound so good b/c they are insecure around people from wealthier areas?[/quote]
