[quote=Anonymous]You're missing the trees for the forest. Annandale is an upper middle class suburb with many, many low income, immigrant workers spread throughout the community in apartment complexes and low income housing. I think Annandale High gets a bad rap because the school is very diverse - both socioeconomically and culturally. Also, and this is just a guess, I think the school skews towards the lower end because many of those beautiful homes are owned by original owners (who no longer have kids in school) or by those who can afford to send their kids to private schools. There is also a very high Korean population there - many are looking to live near TJ, so they are close when their children go there. These are just observations, of course. No real data for my conclusions. [/quote]
