[quote=Anonymous]You may be shocked by the lack of investment in some of the older school buildings in Fairfax County, which have received minimal maintenance over the decades. But otherwise the public schools you are considering in Northern Virginia are all excellent. Your 8th grade son may want to apply to TJHSST, the Science & Tech Governor’s magnet school. Madison and McLean are nice since they are walkable to the surrounding neighborhoods. Oakton was recently renovated and is a stunning facility that sets a high bar for future school renovation projects. The school however is not all that walkable. I would not get caught up in which district is “wealthy” as all three of the schools you mention are in affluent areas. [/quote]
