[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, because unlike in DC your only real option is your base school unless you can justify the switch for a very specific program in high school.[/quote] It’s not that hard to pupil place in FCPS at the HS level - you just find a course or program that isn’t offered at your base school. The bigger issue is what’s been mentioned already, which is that public schools in NoVa don’t view private schools as their competition in the same way that some public schools in DC do, so they don’t roll out the red carpet with “open houses” the same way. But if you want to get a feel for a school’s culture, there are ways to do so, whether by attending orientation sessions, listening to school webcasts on course offerings, attending school events, etc. [/quote]
