[quote=Anonymous]Albemarle county schools have declined in recent years. We are in the western district and that is the highest rated (Henley middle school and western). We had our kids in public but pulled them for private about 5 years ago. Henley enrollment has declined about 30 percent in an area or rapid population growth so that should tell you something. Google Henley lawsuit and you’ll learn more. Western has an okay reputation, but there is grade inflation and a test policy that allows unlimited retakes, thus the reason for grade inflation. Kids from western get into decent schools, but we know many who have failed miserably in college and had to switch schools or quit. I was against private schools initially, but ultimately we didn’t have a choice. The private schools down here are a fraction of the price in northern Virginia so you may want to look into that option. [/quote]
