[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]George Mason is the #16 high school in the state per the latest US News rankings. For what it costs to buy in Falls Church City now, you can do better. https://www.usnews.com/education/best-high-schools/virginia/rankings[/quote] George Mason's ranking on the various media rankings varies from year to year. It is often in the top ten and sometimes in the top five depending on the year and the source. Best Schools in DC Area considered by expats lists GM among a few other publics (Arlington schools mostly) and a bunch of top privates. https://www.goodschoolsguide.co.uk/international/usa/washington-dc/best-schools This article from 2017 explains why GM dropped from 4th to 13th on USNews rankings. https://patch.com/virginia/fallschurch/george-mason-falls-u-s-news-top-high-school-rankings So while you might be able to "do better" for what it costs to buy a house in FCC it would not be with the advantages of a small, responsive school system that did arguably much better during distance learning as a direct result of being so small. There are also many other advantages of living and learning in FCC that appealed to my familly, but I recognize that some others would not have the same priorities. Many prefer larger schools, like high schools with three or four thousand students vs less than a thousand. [/quote]
