[quote=Anonymous]Having been in your shoes with my kids going to TC, in my heart of heart I say go private. I still regret my decision years later. TCWHS is slowly improving academically, yet now is having frank problems with the number of students in spite of opening the new TC campus in 2007. So crowding in the halls is a problem, especially in the international school and troubles sometimes follow. Just too many kids coming into Alexandria City right now for the number of buildings and as it is, ACPS gets the bulk of taxpayer monies. Lots of fiscal needs coming to a head in Alexandria City currently and for next ten years. Yikes. "I've also heard that the kids get a "bump" for being from an urban public school. Is this true or an urban legend?" I heard that too. Yale or jail theme. I think Ivy's and good Universities have so many applications from similar high school that at this point it's more legend. Good luck to you and your daughter. [/quote]
