[quote=Anonymous]Excellent school, very well-regarded. I have friends in North Arlington who send their kids there out-of boundary, though that may not be possible anymore at current capacity. Arlington schools are very good across the board, and any differences in test scores are usually more due to demographics than actual disparities in teaching quality or resources. In Barcroft's case, the district does include a strip of high-rises and lower-income housing along Columbia Pike, which have a sizable immigrant population, and for reasons of langauge alone that is going to drag down the scores compared to some of the N. Arl districts that are more culturally and economically homogenous.[/quote]
