[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think FCPS is a very strong public school system. Within that system, one can choose AAP programs (if eligible), language immersion programs, arts/science magnets, IB, AP, and Academy programs. In the rare situation where schools like Dogwood in Reston failed to meet standards for several years in a row, parents were given a transfer option to other schools (this was about five years ago). Having read about city charters that failed to provide students with a sound foundation or, conversely, pushed out lower-performing kids so they could raise their profiles, I'm not eager to see one of the nation's best public school systems cannibalized by those who are hostile to public education.
