[quote=Anonymous]As a parent in Arlington, I think you should consider houses zoned for WL if you're willing to consider Yorktown. Many HS kids want access to the IB program and that's only at WL. As far as technology use, in early elementary, iPads are primarily used for Dreambox, Lexia and assessments. In upper elementary they're also used for Reflex (an awesome app, IMO) and some class presentations and writing assignments. By middle school nearly all work is on the iPad. Phones weren't an issue at all in elementary, as most kids don't have them. Our APS middle school already had phones away for the day before the new Youngkin policy--they have to be locked in lockers all day. That doesn't seem likely to change. I think the jury is still out on how phones will be restricted in HS, as it's logistically complicated since not all students have lockers and kids come and go from campus for various reasons during the school day.[/quote]
