[quote=Anonymous]I am interested in a comparison of the McLean school system (which I know is part of FFCPS) and Falls Church City's schools (which I understand is its own system). Our son will be starting from elementary-age, so I am interested in elementary through High School, hoping we will not move again. Things I am currently thinking about: 1. I understand McLean's sytem is designed to ensure bright kids won't be bored/there is the GT program -- what about Falls Church? 2. I'm wondering what things are like in the McLean HSs as far as social environment-- I know academically they are ranked high, but I wonder about problems with drugs/attitude of students given the concentration of wealth/privilege in the community, 3. wondering about the "extras" beyond strict academics that the systems provide through all grades (or don't) esp as far as art and music.
